▶ Your Answer :
As a lot of people start to rely on the Internet,
they think the Internet can be more effective for students that books. However,
in my opinion, it might not be useful as people think since there are too much
information which is hard to be reliable and online courses through the
Internet is not as good as offline courses.
To begin with, immeasurable information on
the Internet makes students difficult to find what they want to know exactly. Most
students use the Internet when they have assignments these days. It is the best
way to find something very quickly, but also it can be the worst way to find weird
information. From my experience, when I took a literature class, I had to find
something which is somewhat difficult to find. I surely thought the Internet
was the only way to help me out. As I thought, I could find somewhat much
information easily and quickly. I thought my grade would be good. However, I
got C and the professor said I wrote completely wrong information. What I found
was just a personal opinion. The reason why I could not realize people said as all
things they wrote are true. It is a big problem of the Internet. After that, I
could not trust the Internet’s information, so I started to try to use books.
On top of that, learning something through
the Internet such as online courses does not have as good qualities as offline
courses. It is useful since we do not have to go to school for learning.
However, the problem is that it is unable to do get quick response from a
teacher when we ask something we don’t understand. For instance, I have taken an
online English course. One day, I had to ask to the teacher about English
grammar that I could not get it, so I asked her through a bulletin board on the
Web site. I got the response, but it took four days. If I asked a teacher at
school, I could get the response in a day.
To sum up, It is true that our life is
getting convenient thanks to the Internet, however, it sometimes makes us access
to wrong information and waste time. In this regard, I feel that the Internet
is not as not a good tool as people think in terms of students.
