Students should be taught to read and write using a computer, as handwriting will not be used in the future. To what extent do you agree or disagree? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

Because of

technical development,

computers

are more and more important in life and work, replacing handwriting in many situations.

Due to

this

importance, many

people

suggest that

students

should learn how to

use

a computer to read and write. They believe that in the future, handwriting will be not essential anymore.

Although

students

should know how to

use

computers

for their studying, I suppose that writing by

hand

will not disappear in the future. On one

computers

overwhelm traditional writing. In a minute,

people

can

more words than they write. It is crucial in the educational environment.

Students

can have to note essential things for examinations or simply because they do not have

Therefore

In addition

writing style.

This

is essential as sometimes,

teachers

can assess the answers of

students

for exercises. If

teachers

cannot read what their

students

read, they are not able to give effective and punctual advice to improve their skills or correct incorrect answers. Typing can deal with

this

disadvantage of writing by

hand

, helping

teachers

to access

students

' answers and examine how excellent they are.

On the other

hand

,

computers

cannot completely replace handwriting in the future. One of the main reasons is the

to

as rapidly as possible.

Students

usually have to learn how to

words,

while

writing by

In addition

. Another significant drawback of

computers

is they are not suitable for a number of writing systems in the world, which handwriting can deal with.

For instance

Therefore

in China have to write frequently.

This

is what typing cannot solve, it is only effective in the case of alphabetic writing systems

such

as the Latin, Greek and Cyril alphabets. In conclusion, typing can be faster than handwriting and it is usually suitable for
