In developing countries, children in rural communities have less access to education. Some people believe that the problem can be solved by providing more schools and teachers, while others think that the problem can be solved by providing computers and Internet access. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.
It is argued that the rural communities should focus on developing academic departments instead of supplying computer systems. While reasons can be given to justify this, I believe that children can gain a well-rounded education through the usefulnessof internet.
On the one hand, there are those who believe that schools and teachers are essential factors for children to be acquired knowledge. Firstly, children can interact directly with their teacher. When a student need to know about any issues, the educator will provide crucial information for them, and solve their problems in some ways. The interaction between teachers and learners is very important that make much progress in learners’ studies. Secondly, children will be distracted when learning by internet. Actually, they may trade their learning for entertainment because they are attacted by the development of online social networks such as facebook and twitter.
On the other hand, I side with those who are in favour of dealing with the problem by developing computer systems and network access. Studying via the internet has a capable of enriching children’s knowledge because of the flexibility of accesing information and resources. For example, my younger sister is enormously enjoy Japanese. She signed up a Japanese course which is a online class, and she was able to talk with native speakers fluently within three months. In addition, having a chance to learn about that will benefit children greatly when it comes to their later career. Modern jobs will require employees to be familiar with at least some computer applications in order to boost their productivity at work.
In conclusion, it seems to me that providing computer and internet access are of paramount importance despite undeniable benefits of building more schools and recruiting more teachers. (290 words)
