Computers are inevitable part of almost all walks of human
life now and learning is highly influenced by these machines in the present. I completely
agree that they help children to learn more efficiently.
Computers facilitate learning in innumerable ways. One of
them is the visual auditory applications. They make learning easier and even amusing
for children. With every passing day computers are enriched with new software
applications that incredibly aid learning and expression. For example, students
of geography and cartography are all ways thrilled to see earth on screen with
the help of google earth.
Moreover, it can also be of great help when one is connected
to the world-wide web or as we commonly call it the internet. Students can get
lads of information related to their subject. Internet enriches their knowledge
and improves their academic performance.
However, some people argue that usage of computer is harmful
to the body of children. It is scientifically proven that excessive usage of
computer can damage their eyes and can cause muscular disorders. Also, long
hours on the internet might mean harmful lack of social contact but, like we
give children a lesson in responsibility in all other facets of life it is
important that the parent and teacher in us guide them to balance in their
daily routine. While taking care that their upbringing is enriched with the opportunities
computers present them with, the young generation is to be saved from physical
and psychological problems that come about with extreme behavior.
Thus, I reiterate that computers are integral to children’s learning process and with adequate
precautions, we can certainly minimize their drawbacks and optimize benefits.
Finally access usage of computers has its own disadvantages.
It is also proven that excessive dependence on technology hinders the
psychological growth in children and they may become incapable of resolving
complex problems.
On the other hand, some people argue that children already
study many subjects in school. If we facilitate them with the technology of translating
languages, they will have less academic burden to deal with. Next, they also
assert that translation software is becoming more competitive with every
passing day. Millions of people are already using it in their everyday life.
In conclusion, I think using computers for translating is a
good idea but children should be taught languages in order to acquaint them
with different cultures and grant them a capacity which helps them wherever
they are in the world.
