The Impact of the Internet on Learning
It is apparently depicted in the cartoon given above that while a teacher wants to give a quiz to a little boy who is holding a cell phone in his hand and says: “Once I learn how to use Google, isn＇t that all the education I really need?” The teacher seems to be quite embarrassed and shocked after hearing her student＇s naive question.
The cartoon vividly mirrors one of the problems in our lives that the Internet has exerted a great influence on people＇s learning. We can acquire relevant knowledge and information rapidly and precisely via search engines, professional websites and online education. However, education does not simply mean learning to obtain information. Learning basic hands-on skills, traveling with classmates, participating in social activities and fulfilling a project with our teamwork can also be effective and indispensable forms. All of these maybe can not be achieved by obtaining information from Internet alone.
Therefore, we should not ignore those traditional, essential and prevailing forms of education when we surf the web and speak highly of convenience of the Internet education in the age of information. (172 words)
