Topic 39 Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? With the help of technology, students nowadays can learn more information and learn it more quickly. Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.
In modern society, many improvements in people’s life rest on developments in technology, and I believe that students can also benefit from the technology. Some of the main reasons will be mentioned as follows.
First of all, with the help of technology, learning can become more interesting. The multimedia technology has immensely changed the atmosphere of the class. Students can enjoy the vivid photos, appreciate the splendid audio profiles, and get fun from the interesting flash. It can motivate students to concentrate their minds on the learning contents in that the information brought about by the multimedia technology is much of interest. Whereas, in the past, students are often inclined to be absent-minded in class because of the tedious learning contents.
In addition, students can get more information and learn more knowledge with the help of modern technology. It is believed that books can only provide students limited information. As the development of the internet technology advances, more information can be readily available. Students can find out almost all information they want on the internet: they only need to input some keywords, then thousands of related items will appear, which offer them a large amount of useful information.
Besides, seeking information on the internet is more efficient than finding information in books. The latter may take students hours even days in libraries or somewhere to collect limited stuff. Thus, learning knowledge can be more quickly than ever before, since the internet provide students a more easier and effective way to learn.
In conclude, it is technology that can motivate students to learn more and quickly, and furthermore make them be interested in learning, since technology supplies a newly effective and easier way for students to learn. So I strongly believe that with the help of technology, students can learn better. |
