You should spend about 40 minutes on the following task:

In some countries, using the internet in school is getting popular. Is it positive or negative development?
Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

You should write at least 250 words.

Sample Answer 1:


It is an irresistible fact that over the past few decades the world has witnessed the rapid strides in technology, especially in the field of education, as it has been seen that utilisation of internet has expanded among the schools in many countries. In my opinion, it has both positive and negative developments and effects.                               

While spotlighting the positive development, I can say that it is highly imperative for today’s pupils that they know about the new technology in this competitive epoch. So, to allow the internet in school can play a key role in the development of a student. By knowing the advantages of the internet, the young students can comprehend any concept of study which is not understood by them in classrooms. For verification, it is illustrated that the students who are well recognised with internet usage in school time, do not usually face the inconvenience in further life.

On the contrary, in spite of the internet being such helpful in school, its drawbacks cannot be overlooked. It is likely that the pupils can be overdependent on the internet. It can swallow the direct interaction between students and teacher. For instance, there are many websites on the internet with which students can attend any lecture of his class through the internet while sitting at home. So he or she probably make it a habit and as to he or she can give preference to the online methods of study. Furthermore, there is surety that every student would use this technology in a positive way.

So far I have written to be concluded that it is in the hand of the school department to make the positive development of usage of internet in school. They should allow the students to use the internet to such an extent that it cannot impact the practical knowledge and interaction of the students with teacher.

Sample Answer 2:


The internet has revolutionised the manner in which information is retrieved. I strongly believe that excessive dependency on the internet can have negative implications on the pupils. This will be shown by looking at how immense exposure to the web can affect the social development and the concentration level of the students.

For one, it is true that the content available on the website is difficult to monitor. This is due to the fact that it is impossible to filter out the matter based on the age of the person accessing it. For instance, there are some videos on the YouTube which are inappropriate for the people under 18 yet can be easily viewed by them just by declaring wrong age on the warning messages displayed. Such videos can have a negative impact on the young mind and thereby can afflict their social behaviour.

In addition, data is easily available on the net with a single search of the keyword. This benefit lures most of the students to prefer studying on the internet instead of the conventional books. A good illustration for this is the google search engine which is the most used tool for obtaining the data. Utilisation of such tools on the daily basis motivates young people to minimise the usage of books and hence, they become used to getting information quickly. However, this hampers the searchability of the young people as well as lowers their attention level.

As seen from above, inordinate usage of the internet can have negative ramifications on the child’s development. Thus, it is expected that the educational institutions will put efforts to minimise the internet use.
