Today, books are still the primary medium of instruction in most
schools. Already, there is a disadvantage of using books for learning that are
being debated upon. The errors in public school textbooks have also been
exposed, errors resulting from wrong information, technical mistakes and
editorial lapses.
Today, technology is being viewed as a savior
because the students are enamored by computer games. By that, the educators
have begun to think that the computer screen can very well serve as a power
point educational medium.
In general, tablets as a primary learning tool can
be replacing the textbooks. Tablets are conducive to higher thinking,
constructive and participative teaching-and-learning. By that, parents gave
full support to the IT advancement. Technology itself may be a key to problem
resolution and Filipino ingenuity is called to respond to the challenge facing
the digital generation of the millennium.
Having something that can replace heavy bulky books is
a good idea, the students will no longer suffer from carrying heavy books and
if the only use tablets they can access their books anytime anywhere because it
can be brought easily without hassle.
It is no longer impossible as what the students in La
Salle were experiencing. Even ordinary college students were no longer buying
books in the store especially now that PDF format copies of the books were
already available and free to be downloaded.
In the near future this kind of events will be achieve
by all levels of schools in the Philippines it may sound impossible because of
the current situation in our country that cannot even provide good classrooms
and equipment. But nothing is impossible, if there’s a will to become better
there will always a way in achieving better and bigger things.
