Could Students Study without Computers?


       Modern life is impossible without technology. The computer is a part of modern human's life,consequently, it is an important part of education. Most are convinced that students couldn't study effectively without a computer, but others do not agree.
   
   In my opinion, studying with using of computer is easier. To begin with,students can find necessary information on the Internet. So, they should not spend a lot of time to find it in books. Also, they can discuss questions which they have with their online groupmates. It is really help to save their time. Moreover, students become more highly-educated because they have an opportunity to read and analyze other people's opinions.  Another reason is communication with foreigners  that enables to practice the language, to improve their knowledge  and  to extend the circle of acquaintances.

  One should, however, not forget that a computer damages health. So, many young people have vision problems. Experts believe that a computer takes a lot of time. I think that many students waste their time, surfing the Net and procrastinating, while they can do many useful things instead of  it. For example, they can spend this time on doing sport or hobby.

    I absolutely agree with this point of view because a computer is the biggest course of information. So, a computer makes our life more comfortable. Nevertheless, students should realize that a computer is not the all part of our life. Of course, they can  chat with friends, play computer games, but they should do it moderately.

    The arguments we have presented suggest that students cannot study effectively without a computer.

Hi, everyone!

What is plagiarism?  I haven't thought about it much before. However it is really important issue. Students face this problem very often, particularly when writing an essay. There are a lot of information on the Internet. So it's really easy just to copy it and then paste this text into your works. Though, this is not the way to do it. It's necessary to paraphrase and write your own words. Fortunately, nowadays there are many resources to check for plagiarism.

I've chosen Viper (https://www.scanmyessay.com/?utm_campaign=elearningindustry.com&utm_source=%2Ftop-10-free-plagiarism-detection-tools-for-teachers&utm_medium=link)

First I noticed the interface. It's really nice and user-friendly. To use this resource, you must register. This is not very convenient, but you can log in using Google account. It helps to save your time. It's 100% free and all features are available. It checks, scans and compares documents. It's ideal for students. As I have read on their website, this program checks your document for plagiarism against 10 billion sources including journals, books and websites. I also noticed that this online app is available in Spanish. But for me it is not relevant:) This site is not very convenient to use from your phone, it is better to use it through a computer.

In general, I liked the app and I would like to use it in the future.
