Online Reading

I know from personal experience that sometimes when I read things online it is a lot harder for me to understand what I am reading, however, if I print off what I need to read for some reason I can understand it much easier. This is not to say that when you read online that you are not getting just as much information as you are from a book. Many more people may like the idea of reading online, you can get more information in faster time, shortening the time required reading, and gaining information. Many classes use computers on a daily bases, in my previous english classes I was required to go online and use online sources for research papers. Nine times out of ten in high school when we went to the library for a class it was to use the computers not the books. Using books is becoming less and less for school and learning activities and more for just entertainment and passing the time.

    I agree with you, it is a easier way to do online reading and more sufficient for teachers without going buying all the books.
    But also are you saying for teachers to turn away from literary books?
    I do not think so myself, because with having in class lterary books is helpful to some extinct, because we all know that if we had access to the computer in library and the teacher is not lookin at us, we would all be doing something else that is meaningful and entertains our own needs.
