LESSON 18: TABLETS FOR TEXTBOOKS IN SCHOOL


 
            
Content:
          This lesson is trying to aid the inconvenience of having books as the primary medium of instruction wherein every day, students will bring a lot of heavy books in school. They are suggesting to have a digital-based medium of instruction specifically the use of computers or tablets for convenience. However, tablet-for-learning is still futuristic because of most common reason, finances. Nevertheless, though both books and tablets help in students’ learning, we cannot deny the fact that students nowadays would prefer those that are modern.
    
                In fact, De La Salle University is now experiencing this kind of learning. Students’ parents really invested as well as other stakeholders to advance their students. Practically, this would require the teachers to be literate also especially that she will be the facilitator of their learning.
    


Reflection:
               On the other hand, if we are to impose tablets in all schools, it’s really impossible for now. Three main reasons were given: the cost, durability and technical expertise. Though there are really schools who are trying to use this tablets, we should accept the fact that it has also limitations.
     
Application:
            Tablets in school is not that impossible to happen. So as early as now, I should be exposed to using these kind of things. Though I’m not that traditional of course. Anyway, everything can be learned. I should have the willingness to learn things for the better future of my students.
