It is debatable whether the arrival of the new era of technology is helpful to students' learning capacity. Some people say the development of technology obstructs students' concentration on the book, the traditional and most common source of information because the technology is more related to recreational activities than educational aspects. However, I strongly believe that students can lean a lot of information more easily and fast with the help of technology. That's because it is very easy for students to share and search for a huge amount of information, and internet lecture allows students to have supplement classes in the convenience of their home.
First of all, with computer, the symbol of modern technology, students can find a lot of materials for their learning, and they can share the information with each other. The enormous information which can be used by internet makes students learn efficiently. For example, when I search for my assignment, I don't need to go to a library in person fo find good references. All I need to do is just several clicks of a mouse, and gather the lots of information related to my works. It not only make the time shorten, but also allows me much more information. In this case, we have to acknowledge the technology's strong power for students' learning.
On top of that, students can study more easily with on-line lecture. In the past, the place teaching and learning can be made only in the classes in school. However, thanks to the development of technology, students can study in their home with teacher in a monitor. Here is a good example of the beneficial effect of the internet learning. To my friend who is majored in business administration, it is really hard to enroll the English class as an elective because his course credits are already full with major courses. Going to language academy was also not a good solution since he lives in the dormitory on campus. His choice was on-line lecture, and it was great helpful to his study. He does study well in his home and interacts with the lecturer with the board in a website. As seen above, it is possible to make an active and beneficial class in students' home by on-line lecture which is the result of high technology.
To conclude, thanks to the development of technology, the methods of learning is changing to more efficient direction by the internet area filled with enormous information, and convenient on-line lectures. In the nearby future, learning can be more efficient, and the opportunity of learning will be more equal to everyone who has a desire to study and learn by the support of technology.
