Answer 1

For

Good morning everyone present here. I am going to express my views on ‘Computers are a boon for children’.

We are living in an IT revolution era. Indispensability of computers cannot be denied. The modern youth doesn't have any other option. Computers have already taken over each and every field. Tell me an area or sphere where computers are not being used! Education, industry, finance, defense, teaching, learning, research, medicine, accounting, entertainment, internet, online teaching, telecommunication, media, and space research and exploration. It is computer, computer everywhere. The modern world will look void without computers. Computers have created such an order in every field. They are so adroitly efficient in data storing and handling. They have man's life much more organized, systematic, simple, colourful, and awesomely efficient.

Computers have become ubiquitous owing to their versatility. What is it not that you can't do with a computer? They are the gods of the modern era! Naturally the field of education has also been influenced positively by use of computers. They have made the learning in classrooms much more convenient, easier, simpler, colouful, fun-filled, and efficient. Expert teachers teach students using smart boards and interactive whiteboards. Computers have enabled both students and teachers process learning data many times faster than was possible in a traditional classroom.
The computers store the teaching and learning data systematically stored which can be so easily accessed by anyone wanting it. Internet has further facilitated sharing of knowledge available abundantly on all the subjects. School websites now provide all the educational information required by parents and students. Aspiring students can look up the internet for any information and knowledge they require while studying or doing assignments. So computers have really made education quite romantic. There is a modern Renaissance in education owing to computers.

However, there are precautions and cautions which should be taken in the use of computers by children. The teachers and parents must teach children the art of using computers wisely. Failing to do so is surely going to have repercussions.

Good morning everyone. I am going to express my views against the motion ‘Computers: A Boon or A Bane There is a famous expression 'Water, water, everywhere, Nor any drop to drink.' by Samuel Taylor Coleridge in his poem 'Rime of the Ancient Mariner.' This expression aptly describes the plight of misuse of computers and information technology. In the modern context of the above quoted lines we can say there is 'Internet, internet everywhere, not much good use of it.' I strongly feel the easy accessibility of all types of information on the Internet through computers is doing more harm than good to the younger generation. There is no denying the fact that equally good and useful information related to studies, education, books and health is freely available, but unfortunately the number of children who access these useful sites is far less compared to those who access pornographic, video games, songs and other related sites! How many of us have seen a youngster using his smartphone to surf an educational site? I know the answer! Very rarely! Our youth predominantly use Facebook, Whatsapp, Youtube, and similar sites on their high-end smartphones and tabs; not any educational or other informative sites! They have become so much addicted to these useless, time-wasting sites, that they are ready to happily sacrifice their study and research hours for the sake of their fruitless, pleasure seeking pursuits! They are going astray! They need to be shown the right way. Internet and computers in themselves are wonderful reference source, but they need to be handled with care, which are youth need to be trained into. The need of the hour is strict monitoring. At this tender age the youth should be provided controlled access to the internet. Sites such as show pornographic stuff, violence, aggressive games, etc should be inaccessible to the youth. On the other hand, online libraries, study reference material, counseling, meditation, healthy living life style, positive mind building games related to studies, encyclopedias, etc should be provided free of cost. These basic steps taken can really save many youngsters from taking the path to crime and violence.
