British elite Cambridge is considering whether to allow students to use Tablet or laptop to answer in the future,because more and more students write answers in bad handwriting which make it difficult for teachers to identify.
As part of the digital education strategy, solicit opinions from the students at the university of Cambridge is reform the answer way.Earlier this year, however, Cambridge has begun pilot computer in the classical literature of history test
The concerns of the teachers on students' writing ability is not a year or two, the handwriting is more and more difficult to identify, not only to the teacher, is the problem to students as well. Because of the writing can't identify, students in the summer vacation was called back to school, when students read their answers in front of teachers oriented case is growing.
The student writing ability is definitely a trend, so one of the biggest ways to enter with a computer is recommended. 15 or 20 years ago, students write with hand (pen) every day there are usually several hours of time.But now, in addition to the test, they almost don't have to hand write.
A spokesman at the university of Cambridge, said officials consider reform the answer way, because the students complain that they are almost in hand writing but not learning.
Using a computer input the answer is inevitable trend, will be popular in university in a few years.
Handwritten are reducing sharply, we have to accept this fact, students are growing up in such an environment.These young people at the university of Cambridge in the final exam at the beginning of this century is to learn how to express myself (in electronic equipment), they instinctively type with the computer.For education, it has become a choice rather than having to handwriting.
The pace of life too fast, so that each person's handwriting like the doctor prescribed it is difficult to identify.
Against using computers, on the other hand, there is also fear that doing so will make handwritten can only be remembered when nostalgia.
A handwriting expert said, as the tablets and the rise of social media, people are using the keyboard typing time is much larger than write by hand, but students must adhere to handwriting, especially when taking notes, because the handwriting can deepen our memory.
Also there is a concern that if university computer typing the answer of the precedent, primary and secondary schools may follow.
