In the early times or the dark ages, people had to study from text books and they had no other way out. Now, even teachers use the internet! The computer makes life so easier because you can always Google in questions and the answers just appear. The student does not have to do any work!! When students are given essays, they have to type them. Again, typing essays on the computer makes life easier. When you spell a word wrong, the computer gives you list of words that have a similar spelling. You just have to pick the right one. There......... you are done! This way, you do not even learn how to spell words right. Many students do not have a big vocabulary. In fact, most students do not. When you type a word, right click it, and then click on "synonyms," you can get a bunch of synonyms. This is how some students get a better grade that they do not even deserve. Many people say that technology has made the world easier, but it has also made the world smaller, especially in education.
As you can see, information is communicated in a way that the result is people learning less than before. There are many ways to make things easier and to use less effort when technology is involved. This makes people learn less because they do less work.
Good Job Krutika! I totally agree about the spelling situation. More and more people depend on technology to help them with their mistakes. Another thing I hate is people who can get away with plagiarism easily because of copy and pasting on the internet. You should include that topic about plagiarism. Overall awesome post.
