Do you agree or disagree with the following statement? Within 20 years students are no longer going to use printed materials. Use specific reason and details to explain your answer.
I disagree with the statement that students will no longer use printed materials in the next 20 years because of two reasons. First, printed materials will always be around because they are easier to read when compared to the digital materials. I read many articles on my computer and sometimes my eyes tire and I have to take a break, while in paper, the feeling of reading is real on a printed book or paper. Second, by using paper materials you're less likely to multitask, where instead on the computer, you're always tempted to do other things.
