Will the More Advanced Computers Eliminate the Valuable Role of Human Teachers in the Classroom

AppId is over the quota

With the advancement in technology and IT sector Computer Systems are developing quickly. The Computers have started to take an important part in the lives of students and business personalities. Tablet computers have further increased the reliability of user's on computer for the accomplishment of their everyday tasks.

There was a time when the human teachers had to work extremely hard in order to educate their students. The lack of access to knowledge from all parts of the world and the lengthy books that were hard to digest for some students. Now with the advancement in the IT Industry and the penetration of Internet connectivity eased up the learning process both for the students as well as for the teachers.

The Hot discussion that often occupies the Spotlight is "Will Computers Rule Out the Role of Human Teachers Into The Class Room".

A lot of People participate in this discussion and give various facts and figures to justify their stance on this topic.

Personally being rationale I feel that the role of Human Teachers in the learning process will remain intact.

Computers can not think for themselves. Computers are man made inventions and they rely on a Human to input Instructions in them.

Unlike Humans they lack brains so are unable to think and make new discoveries. Computers can only display what the Human asks them to do.

In the Class Room there are a lot of Students from various backgrounds. A Human is always needed for their ethical and emotional training. Some human effort is needed to inform them of the dreadful circumstances that may emerge if they fail to engross themselves wholeheartedly into their studies.

Computers lack emotions so if a student is sad as a result of some unfavorable situation a computers can not console or cheer him up. A Human is always needed to pick up deficiencies in the students that may prove to be harmful in their careers.

The mistakes that students commit can be corrected by Computer but Computer can not make them confident enough to avoid repeating these mistakes.

Some Students are slow while others are quick so A Human is needed to take them on the pace track of learning.

Indeed the verdict goes that Computers could be used as Guides in the Classroom to enable students learn their lessons with interactivity but can not replace human teachers as they are an integral part in teaching process and a Human who has gone through the same phase is able to guide the aspiring and enthusiastic students in a better way. For continuation of the debate land on Cloud Computing.

A young and enthusiastic aspiring student who loves blogging at International Business.

Google Chromebook - Introducing Advanced Technology

AppId is over the quota

Advancements in technology have changed personal computing immensely since the 1980s. In the early days, computers could only be controlled via the keyboard. Now we can interact with a computer with a mouse, graphics pad, touch screen monitor, and even with voice recognition technology. For example, I have been writing this article by speaking into a microphone while the words magically appear in my word processing document.

Years ago, the user had to write his or her programs by hand, using somewhat cryptic codes. Now there are hundreds even thousands of commercially available applications for computer use. Additionally, the computing experience has moved from the office and home office desktop virtually out onto the Internet via telephone, DSL and broadband cable connections. Furthermore, Wi-Fi connections, laptops, netbooks, and tablet PCs allow the user to take computing physically out of the office.

The newly developed Google Chromebooks take computing to an entirely new level. These laptops, manufactured by Samsung and Acer, are powered by an operating system that is based on the Google Chrome browser. The new user will notice a major difference from the moment the notebook is opened. The computer starts booting up immediately and will be ready for use in about 8-10 seconds. Internet connection is made through a Wi-Fi or optional three-G adapter.

The operating system's installation is verified over the Internet every time the computer boots up. This keeps the computer safe from malware and other Internet-based threats, along with other security features. The majority of applications that run on these computers are also web-based and data created on the notebook is stored in the "cloud."

While these Internet-based features are beneficial for the home user, the implications for educational and business use can be phenomenal. IT department intervention is minimized because group policies, permissions, and other network maintenance tasks are accomplished through a web-based interface. Since computer users access their applications over the Internet, there are virtually no software installation issues to repair. Each user works with the programs and apps that are pushed to them.

Because the files are stored on the Internet on secure servers, the safekeeping of the data is enhanced. If the computer is lost, stolen or damaged, the user merely has to obtain another computer to continue their work. The Chromebooks can be used as standalone computers, or as part of a network that contains other, more traditional personal computers.

Advancements in technology have changed personal computing immensely since the 1980s. Google Chromebooks can be used as stand-alone computers and takes computing to the higher level. To learn more about Chromebooks and IT related matters, you can check it out at AccuTech International.
