This matter is generating a plethora of controversy lately. While many people speak strongly for it,the opponents are also firm in there opinion.
There are three main reasons why I argue against the viewing more television can help young people learn more effectively. Firstly,too many screen hours can interfere with students’ study and they may not be able to concentrate on academic curriculums,a problem which can lead to poor grades. Secondly, children also do not have spare more moments to participate in practical activists that enhance hands on abilities, for instance planting, painting and carving. These activists can promote brain development, which will further boost the effectiveness of learning. Finally,pupils may spend several hours in front of the box every day, and the are not willing to play physical games and do sports with peers,as a result they may suffer obesity, bad eyesight or fatigue. Because of this,they do not have enough energy to cope with the demands of schooling and lose self-confidence gradually.
On the other hand,although i acknowledge that some information television programmes may have positive influences on young people’s study,this information can only be the compliment that they have learned at school. The main advantage of television programmes is that children are exposed to a world of knowledge. However,sometime the knowledge is too complex for children yo understand, and it cannot meet children’s demands at different age range. For example, a foreign language channel van help teenagers improve their foreign language abilities slightly, but it is too difficult for young kids who are without any foundation of foreign languages to understand it. Therefore, it was a waste of time for those younger kids to see it. I believe that students should spend more of their valuable time on school Courses,because those courses are more scientific and systematic which can lead them to progress gradually and to learn effectively.
To sum up, my view point is that extensive screen viewing will have adverse impact on children’s academic performance and their health, hence parents and teachers should impose restrictions on children’s video viewing, rather than endorse this habit.
