Technology vs Chalk Board -Expression on Paper
Figure-Chalk Board
When I was small we were given lot of emphasis on writing.There used to be
competition in school about good writing at primary level.Every lesson was taught
with use of chalk board. There were no computers and lap top in our times. Every
subject for learning involved lot of practice on paper. We used to write notes of
every subject on paper.

Now students are equipped with smart phones,lap tops,ipads,desk tops and
availbilty of internet is almost 24 hours. One observes that digitization has
decreased students concentration levels:. According to one study, spending too
much time on digital platforms including social media can result in a lack of focus
and concentration. To reap the benefits of digitization and continue to benefit from
using writing tools for self-expression, individuals need to marry the two methods
to enhance cognitive processes.
Classrooms have become more technologically friendly. Students
dependence on technology has increased so much that some
time I find that many of my students struggle when trying to
complete school work without any digital aid.
Moral of story is to increase student analytical power, educators should
use mix mode to teach. Educator should use black board,chalk board to
derive important points of lecture, for experimental demonstrations one can
take help of video presentation. Friends all this I am writing from my own
experience. This mixed mode of teaching help students take notes in class.
They are always active and alert.Class room is always charged with positive
energy. Teacher and taught both take best benefit from mix modes of teaching.
