More and more people believe that technologies are great for learning. Today, such teaching tools as iPads are used in a lot of courses, including language, history and science.
Many teachers agree on using iPads in language learning. They say that students now have much more time for discussion in the classroom. Instead of spending class time listening to texts or watching teaching videos, students can do this on their own and come to class preparing for discussion.
The teachers also say that iPads allow students to learn at their own pace. Some students might listen to a dialogue only once and understand it, so they can save time for doing other things. Other students, however, might need to listen to the same dialogue again and again to understand it. Using iPads is especially helpful to students who are learning a language at different paces.
The students who are using the new tool in some courses are also happy. They believe that using iPads is a more enjoyable way to learn and the class becomes much more interesting and helpful. Some think using iPads are good for students. By using iPads, they can pay more attention to the material and learn more. Teaching notes are stored in their iPads and are easy to find. Some students spend more time studying now. " I can listen to my language material or watch teaching videos on the bus, instead of having to wait until I get home," a student explained.
Many teachers are worried about that technologies such as iPads are doing badly to students. They worry that students might store teaching notes and use them to cheat during exams. Some believe that if a student spends more time watching videos on an iPad, he will have fewer chances to have face-to-face communication with others.
However, technologies are already a part of most students' day-to-day lives. As for cheating, teachers can ask students to hand in their iPads when taking exams. Technology is playing an important part. We should look forward to a wonderful future when iPads and other technologies can add a lot to the classroom.
