Computers are now the basis of the modern world. They should therefore be introduced into classrooms, and their programs used for direct teaching purposes. However, dependence on computers in teaching may carry a certain degree of risk to students. Discuss both sides and give your opinion. Give reasons for your answer, and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience. You should write at least 250 words.

Computers

have taken over the modern

world

, and

as a result

, some individuals have argued that they should be harnessed in the lecture rooms for educational purposes.

However

, some others have given a contrary view, claiming that

students

getting reliant on

computers

can pose a serious threat to their development.

This

essay disagrees with

this

latter view that the

use

of

computers

could be detrimental to

students

' educational progress. The essay will discuss both views. On the one hand, the risk of the student getting too used to the

computers

which can make them lazy and less creative is a major concern. With the innovation of

computers

, many

students

have become lazy with solving tasks manually, and quite a few others cannot even think creatively with their brains without having to resort to using the

computer

aid to achieve basic tasks, and

this

can be a serious problem, in the event that they have to work in a remote area where there are no

such

tools to work with.

On the other hand

,

computers

have touched various aspects of human lives, and the

world

has indeed moved from the analogue age to the modernized digital age, and the crops of graduates being produced need to get abreast with the trending development in other to be relevant to the labour market.

This

means that the training mode should reflect the realities of what is obtainable in the broader

world

.

Thus

many aspects of teaching like seminar presentations, giving lectures, and others can be performed with the

use

of the

computer

to enable

students

to get accustomed to the

computer

.

For instance

, employees these days, are looking for trained graduates who are proficient with the

use

of

computers

. In conclusion, while the

use

of

computers

can be abused by

students

, making them unnecessarily lazy and less creative, in my opinion, the

computer

should be utilized more in the classrooms in the current

world

in other to help graduates become more acceptable to the labour market which is now shifting away from the era of manual operation to a digitalized operational system.
