 Pro Firsy of all, for pupils it is inconvenient to carry a heavy bag with lots of books that pressed on shoulders every day. For someone it led to scoliosis or in other words spinal curvature and other back diseases. Moreover, as strange as it may seem but the usual textbook can be cause not only our health problem but also environmental one. Over 50 million trees are cut down every year to make textbooks in USA only. 4 billion of trees are chopped yearly in the world. It"s clear from this that it is not good for our environment which has a lot of problems in addition to this. one should note that using laptops make our study and work more productively and convenient. It is better for us,for our health. It"s better for our environment and therefore for world at whole.  Con The second one is about health. If textbooks affect on developing back diseases, the laptops will have a bad effect on vision. When human stares at screen of laptop duering a long period of time the human's vision decreases. And finally the third one is that students will be disattracted from studying by computer games and social networks. |
