@Suzy Oudah,
Hello Friends,
We live in an increasingly technology-based society. Children need to be prepared to enter a workforce and a world in which computers are a focal point of everyday life. There are several benefits of children using computers both in the classroom and at home.
Educational Benefits:
Being able to learn on a computer has opened up new ways for students to develop academically, especially those who struggle with a learning disorder. Countless websites offer reading and math interventions already designed to help students with specific disabilities. Whereas a teacher in the classroom once had to work long hours to find ways to help hard-to-reach children, the computer provides ready-made activities and interactive games for immediate use.
Communication Benefits: Because of computers and the Internet, our world is more closely connected than it has been in any other century. Children do not just have to study about other cultures and belief systems in a textbook.
Career Benefits: By being knowledgeable about computers and the World Wide Web, children will be able to research career opportunities as well as the universities that can prepare them for their chosen profession.
Accessibility Benefits: One of the main benefits of computers for children is the availability of knowledge and its instant access.
Personal Benefits: Through computers, children have the potential to change their outlook on their abilities, confidence and self-esteem. A shy or withdrawn child can talk to others from the privacy of a keyboard.
