Some people believe that schools are no longer necessary, because students can get so much information through the Internet, and study just as well at home. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
It is true that today the Internet is playing an important role in education, with increasing range and availability of online courses. But I think it is ridiculous to claim that this will lead to the disappearance of traditional schools.

1. Firstly, it is doubted that students can learn as efficiently on the Internet at home as in traditional schools. One property of modern technology is harmful to any learning mind – it distracts. When learners are searching for information online, the Internet provides them with not only relevant results to make use of, but also external links to click. By contrast, in schools there are teachers supervising them, like checking their attendance, and managing their performance during classes. Also, there are peers with whom students can discuss when they encounter problems in study. (93 words. Topic sentence+ 解释网络学习效率不高的原因+ 对比,学校学习效率高的原因)
2. Apart from academic education, school education also creates opportunities for students to gain many valuable social skills. Teachers educate large groups of students together, which means that they must train students to work with their peers and respect other members of the class. Students also learn to behave sensibly in lessons, regardless of the distractions around them, and to follow instructions given to them by teaching staff. These behavioural skills will be crucial in later life. In the workplace, for example, adults are expected to work in teams, listen to each other, and follow the instructions of a manager or company director.
