0In recent years, great technological advances have been made.New technology has changed the face of homes and workplaces all over the world.One place where technology's role is still uncertain is the classroom. It my opinion, multimedia may be used as a supplement to lessons and classroom activities.but it should not be used to replace traditional teaching methods.
More and more Teachers have begun making power point presentation, powerpoint technology makes it easier for teachers to plan lessons, it can save instructors the trouble love constantly writing on the blackboard，giving them more time to explain the information they are showing their students teachers can also include beautiful pictures and short videos in their multimedia presentations, which can help interest students in the topic being presented.HoweverTeachers must take care not to overdo it.Making an entire presentation full of pictures may be easy, but it won't necessarily teach the students anything.Factual content is always the most important component of any lesson. Videos, pictures and bright colors can be distracting to students and should not form the bulk of the lesson.
Some teachers are also beginning to allow their students to do work on computers.This enable each student to work at his or her own pace and indeed the internet can be an excellent tool for research.At the same time, it is difficult to for students to use computers responsibly.They may are tempted to do just about everything but research when they have access to the internet. So unless the teacher is able to carefully monitor each student, allowing them to use computers made with more harm than good.
Electronic equipment is expensive and fragile, it can brake suddenly. So teachers must be careful not depend on multimedia. Some schools simply do not have the money to pay for projectors and computers.Although multimedia can be a valuable tool in the classroom, teachers who only teach in the "old -fashioned" way will not be selling their students short.
