Computer Literacy for Elementary Pupils

In today’s world where everything has a computer embedded in the system, having the basic knowledge about this wonder machine is like having a magic key which can open any door for you.

The advance of technology offers various vital learnings to all, especially when it comes to communications and different assignments that could be assisted by the computer. Instructional materials have also been aided by computers with the use of technology.

With regards to the literacy of grade school pupils in using computers, there are lots of disadvantages that I could consider but, there are also lots advantages which are justifiable and acceptable in many matters. Let’s talk about the disadvantages regarding the computer literacy of grade school pupils. First, computer literacy can harm their attitude. Second, it could make them lazy. Third, pupils became addict to some features such as playing games, internet browsing, movies, music etc.

Being literate than being illiterate with the use of computer at the early age is imperative. Let’s talk about “what grade school pupils can benefit regarding their literacy in using computer”. First, they can be more informative just because of their skills where they can manipulate computers which is the main tool for accessing the informations easily. Second, they become competent and advance learner with regards to new trends and technology.

Considering advantages and disadvantages I had stated above, Guardians/Parents should monitor and evaluate the learnings as well as the attitude of their children with regards to the effect of the literacy with the use of computer.

I agree with this matter, that grade school pupils should learned on how to use computer at the early age but, there should be a monitoring and evaluation activity to be done so that the usage, the informations, and their literacy will not be abused but can be utilized in the right way.
