SITI AYEESHA - SECTION B (13/2/2018)
Many people claim that watching television is education but others feel that it can never be more than a way of passing time.
Nowadays, people think that watching television can be educational instead of just a way of passing time. Watching television can never be for educational purpose as it for entertainment purpose solely as it is indeed is just a way of passing time. Also can be a way of wasting time.
Firstly, when watching television, what we do is we just sit and watch it. We are fed with the content provided but there are no involvement of thinking and problem- solving skills. This is not learning but instead just absorbing whatever information given. In the end, we will produce humans that absorb information instead of learners
Next, when watching television, there is only one-way communication involved. This will not help toddlers to improve their communication skill as two-way communication is needed in a real-time social interaction. When this prerecorded videos are played, toddlers just listen to it and they tend to become not responsive. Learning requires us to become responsive as the communication and interaction go back and forth.
In conclusion, television does not enhance the educational value and it even bring bad effects to us. Watching television to much can cause addiction and also can ruin relationship because you re watching television instead of communicating with loved ones. It also gives bad effect to our health as too much television can destroy our eyesight. Watch less television and there are other educational sources that you can turn to like online courses instead of television.
