Scope reliant on computers

Problems

associated Possible solutions The consequent modernisation of learning has resulted in the

use

of computers in learning.

This

however

has resulted in students relying more on them.

This

essay will highlight the

problems

which are associated with that and the

use

of other resources in learning.

To begin

with, the

use

of computers for educational purposes has resulted in students not being able to

use

their own skills to solve

problems

. Being able to utilise

one

's cognitive skills helps

one

to become apt at problem-solving.

Hence

, relying on gadgets for learning

such

as laptops is detrimental in the long run.

For instance

, when I was at school, solving mathematical

problems

was done without calculators. I believe due to

this

, I am able to cope better when faced with stressful situations which require human skills. The above shows the disadvantage of technology for learning.

Instead

of it just being a modern classroom, teachers should encourage them to

use

old-fashioned libraries for research. Back in the day,

one

being able to read a book opened up the imagination, something that technological advancement has taken away.

Hence

the is a need to facilitate old-fashioned books in the school system.

This

is

one

of many solutions. Henceforth, it is true that technology is taking over the classroom, so there is a need to curb

this

by re-introducing the library system.
