SHOULD STUDENT'S TEXTBOOKS BE REPLACED BY NOTEBOOK COMPUTERS?

  Nowadays we are living a technological revolution that is seen all kind of areas. One of those is the education, and the use of notebook computers instead of textbooks. This is an important issue that needs to be discused.

  It is a fact that most high schools have taken the most modern methods, making kids work with new technologies, but does it help students?

  Om the other hand it's truethat we need to evolve and make a modern educational sistem, but on the other hand, kids don't see computers as a way to improve. They use any moment to watch other things, listen to some music... In fact, they get distracted and it is something that makes them go the wrong way.

  From my point of view technologies should be used by students who are older than 16. That's the age when you choose if you want to continue studying. So, if your choice is to go ahead with your studies you should be able to require these technological tools.

  In conclusion, I don't see notebool computers as a bad instrument. We only have to be concient who are we letting them use and if they are going to have the responsability that all of this takes.
