============================
Of course computers are one of an essential feature in modern education. Students come across computers both at home and at school. Governments worldwide have introduced computers and internet connections in classrooms. Most people welcome computers that have improved the ways we work and we play. Technology is advancing at a speed that is far beyond our imagination. Now computers are an essential feature not only in education alone but in our daily lives too.
With the help of computers, descriptive subjects like History, Geography, Civics, Social Studies, can be best taught. Furthermore subjects like Elementary Mathematics including Arithmetic can also be taught using computers. However subjects that involve logic and reasoning can’t be taught very well with the help of computers because the latter involves detailed explanation by a teacher to a student. Teacher goes on explaining the student till such time student and teacher are reasonably satisfied about the matter. This can’t be done by using computer.
Computers are although one of the essential features in modern education but computers can not assess or reflect on a students grasp or weakness. They can not monitor an individual student’s progress or development that is most essential for improvement and progress of a student. Learning and teaching is a human process involving human touch and communication and in this process, emotions play a vital role in a student’s learning and motivating process but these are totally absent in a computer that is a proven emotionless companion. Hence presence of a teacher in the class room is a paramount importance and the human teacher is the most essential feature in the education.
In conclusion computers an essential feature in modern education.
