▶ Your Answer : Some people argue that television is good medium for education because there are a lot of educational contents. However, with in-dept analysis, it is so far-fetched. As far as I am concern, I strongly believe that television should be used by entertainments purpose. This is largely due to the fact that television has more entertainment programs than educational programs. Another reason for my opinion is that another media such as computers and books are better to get information. First and foremost, television has more funny programs than educational programs so people can find out entertainment programs more easily. That is because it is expensive for broadcasting companies to make programs, so they are trying to make entertainment programs that many people want to watch. What I mean is that many broadcasting companies make more comedy programs in order to make money then, it is hard to find educational programs that people want to watch. For instance, I have trouble in searching programs about mathematics because there are few programs so I found out that television is inconvenient to see educational programs. Moreover, another media are better to get information. To elucidate, there are numerous media that are easier to search specific or professional information. People can use computers and books to get information quickly. For example, people can find information by searching some words through google. It is more faster than watching television and convenient or perhaps people can find professional knowledge. In conclusion, another media such as computers and books are better for educational purpose because they are time-effective. To sum up, I strongly disagree with the statement that the purpose of television should be educational, not for entertainments. This is because television is not only lack of educational programs but also just waste of time. |
