Chapter 5 Reflection

This chapter talks about how teachers and students will use the Internet. There are billions of information on the Internet. It is like having a big, giant library in the room, and we can access the library anytime we want. Teachers can find what they want to teach online. My friend told me "I do not know how to teach without Google." Internet is also very important for students. Teachers may want students to find some information by themselves online. This is not only just do their homework, and this is also the ability of self-learning. Learning is not only learn what teachers are teaching, it is also very important to find out they students want to learn, and how to learn by themselves.

This chapter is also talks about the plagiarism. Teachers may use different ways to avoid situations where students plagiarize. For example, teachers can give homework site the website or reference they are use for their homework. Teachers can also use the Internet to check if students plagiarized.

Question:
1. Since students can find most of information that they want, will they spend more time on reading a real book? Like students can find summary of Romeo and Juliet, will they still read the original book? Dose the Internet make students lazy?
2. Since the Internet is so convenient, do students need to go to school everyday?
