It depends on the specific needs and circumstances of the school. While laptops can offer access to a wider range of resources and interactive learning experiences, textbooks still have advantages such as being easier on the eyes and not reliant on electricity. A balance between the two may be the most effective approach.

i think that laptops should be allowed in schools because it saves students a lot of time and energy.my self being a student find it very difficult without a laptop in school,the moment we get home we cant watch any t.v we cant do anything we want other than study the whole day which i personally think is very unfair as there should be another life than studying!!!!!!!!

As a teacher I think both are needed. A laptop is a tool and should be used as such. I often find students who are abusing using a laptop and are not doing what they are suppose to do when given the chance. Textbooks are still important because they center the student on particular data that is valid for that subject matter. As a teacher I use the textbook as a guide to get information across in different ways and with a computer you only use one learning mode, and some people need more.laptops are important for schoool because if children need to find info on something they do not have to use the teachers computer or wait until they get home they can do it right there.

The answer to that is no!... So many kids today are becoming too dependant on their computer resources. So many of these kids are forgeting about their text books at school, because they think "well I can look it up on the internet".. but the question still remains that "is the internet a safe, and reliable resource"? The answer is no!. Kids seem to believe that the internet never tells a fib. But, their wrong. A lot of the information that the internet gives you are lies.. or things some one has made up, and it turns out to be an "F" on your science report and a very dissapointed teacher because you handed in false information from the internet you once were so reliable on. So, in conclusion, should books be replaced by technology?NO! they shouldnt.
