ЭССЕ (СОЧИНЕНИЕ)

The computer is one of the greatest inventions of all times. It helps us to work, relax, and study. Computer technologies are widely used in education by both teachers and pupils. It is believed that computers help them to be more effective.

In my opinion, it is really the fact that pupils cannot study effectively without computers. Firstly, modern computers have connection to the Internet, which means they have access to huge volume of various information and news. It goes without saying that you cannot study effectively without being up-to-date. Secondly, pupils can keep in touch with their teachers via the global network. For example, they can e-mail each other or communicate through Skype. However, there people who are convinced that computers impede schoolchildren’s learning at school. The reason is that computers make people stop thinking on their own. When people have an opportunity to run a multiplying program, they do not need to make an effort to do it mentally. Nevertheless, I cannot support this point of view because computers have more pluses than minuses. I strongly believe that computers contribute to people’s mental development rather than they break this process.

In conclusion I would like to emphasize the fact that computers and other electronic devices are used not only by pupils but also by their parents who want to control their children’s academic progress.
