Assignment: Debate
● Topic 2 MEDIA AND INFORMATION TECHNOLOGIES IMPROVE LEARNING ENVIRONMENTS.
AFFIRMATIVE
"The information technology in the learning environment will improve, because people
will adjust and make things better."
"Ohh really!!! Because for me, the information environment will improve because
technology will help label, filter or ban misinformation and thus upgrade the public's
ability to judge the quality and veracity of content."
"It will Facilitate learning with the advent of gadgets like phones and tablets, students
are able to get instant access to information which makes it easier for them to study.
With the help of the internet, students are able to complete project works and
assignments from school faster and more efficiently. This is one of the intended positive
effects of technology on students. Among other benefits, in this time and age, students
can simply turn to a custom service with a “do my homework for me” request and rid
themselves of having to deal with the stress of education."
"This learning environment has a big contribution to teaching. In recent times, the
arrival of smart boards has improved the teaching quality in schools. These boards help
teachers present limitless information to facilitate students understanding the topic.
They also offer teachers access to Microsoft PowerPoint and other amazing software
for teaching. With smartphone apps technology, students can also improve their grades
with learning and quiz apps. This so-called “portable learning” technology makes
students continue learning new things even outside the school environment."
"It has a big help to develop the mind of students because the brain is the most useful
asset of any person. It works in such a way that, the more you use it, the more you
improve in what you are using it for. In other words, technology helps to develop the
minds of students through access to a limitless ocean of information on the internet."

NEGATIVE
"No, the information learning environment will not improve because technology will
create new challenges that can't or won't be countered effectively and at scale."
"Ithink you're out of your mind… The problem is human nature. Yet, technology
involvement doesn't always guarantee the quality of learning.
"You're wrong It kills student creativity. Although the availability of limitless
information on the internet serves as a great learning tool, it can also kill creativity.
Students sometimes just copy and paste the information in order to get good grades.
This is the reason why we are having lots of students as well as graduates these days
who are excellent on paper but have little to no knowledge in their chosen field of
study. These graduates can’t solve technical problems even though they are degree
holders. This is one of the saddest negative effects of technology on students."
"Duhh!!! It causes Distractions you know… Instead of studying, students spend most of
the time on social media sites and television shows. These days social media has
become an addiction for most students to the point where they prefer staying on
Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, or Twitter while in class instead of focusing on what’s
being taught."
"No, It may cause Misinformations… Although information is limitless on the Internet,
there is no guarantee that what students are consuming is what they need. Anybody can
post anything on the Internet, and it presents as extremely difficult to determine what is
the truth and what is just a clout-chasing piece of misinformation."
