tablets vs textbook

A tablet is a wireless, portable personal computer with a touch screen interface. The tablet form factor is typically smaller than a notebook computer but larger than a smartphone. Textbook is a book about a particular subject that is used in the study of that subject especially in a school. I strongly agree that tablets and iPads should be replace textbooks in school because tablets and iPads easy to carry around and it can put a lot of information.

Tablets and iPads easy to carry around. Student get tired of carrying around all those heavy text books, if we had tablets and iPads we wouldn't have to carry all of those heavy text books. Tablets and iPads can hold hundreds of textbooks on one device, plus homework, quizzes, and other files. Print textbooks are heavy and can cause injuries, while a tablet only weighs 1-2 pounds. Thus, students has no problem to bring tablets or iPads to school because it light and easy to carry.

The other reason why tablet and iPad has more benefit is because it can put a lot of information. At a glance, it is clear that tablets can pack in more learning materials than textbooks. Most tablets today are manufactured with memories between 8GB and 64GB, which can hold hundreds of thousands of textbooks. By using tablets and iPads there will be no need for physical space for storing learning materials.

I know that time table can help student to know what textbook they need to bring to school, but if student take the large number of classes, carrying around a different textbook for each class can hurt literally. While doctors recommend that people should carry a maximum of 15% of their body weight. The results show in over 13,000 backpack-related injuries a year for kids between the ages of 5 to 12. Tablets, on the other hand, are able to store thousands of information for numerous courses and hold tens of thousands of times the content that textbooks do.

I understand people who read textbook can remember more and learn more. However, I thinks tablets also can help increase student achievement. This is because data in the form of chapters with audio as well as video helps kids to understand a subject much better. For example mathematics has become fun for kids because they learn the subject through online games. What is important is people need to know how to used tablets and iPads for their own benefits.

In conclusion, tablets and iPads has more advantages than disadvantages because tablets and iPads easy to carry around and can put a lot of information. Therefore, we should not have all negative view towards using tablets and iPads because it can change our life in a positive way. I once again totally agree on the statement tablet and iPads has more advantages than disadvantages.
