Using tablet in Thai education system, helpful or harmful?

In my opinion, giving tablets to the grade one students make more problems in Thai education system. It’s doesn't mean that the tablet is the bad technology but when we use it to teach just 6 to 7 years old students in class is very hard to control. We realized that the grade one student is still young so it will be difficult to teach them how to use this technology properly. And Thai classes also have many of students per one class so the way to control using such a thing in class will be hard too. When the teacher can’t control the class, the trouble things will happen. Student perhaps use the tablet in the wrong way. They may use it to play such a violent game, start chatting during the class and accidentally find the pornography. These trouble things are the disaster of Thai education.

In this 21th century, we all know that technology pays important role to humankind.
We cannot refuse that we all are using technology everyday and it may be 24/7.
I know that everything has 2 sides , good and bad , so as we will be a teacher, I think we should
adapt lesson plan to be suitable for the children who like to play tablet or smartphone.
It's like when teachers use PowerPoint to teach and motivate students nowadays but in the past the
teachers used only blackboard and some medias to teach students.
It's like an education evolution that we , the teacher, have to adapted to be fit with new teaching method in this era.

In my opinion, using tablet provides both advantage and disadvantage
for many students. The advantage of using tablet, students will be enthusiastic
to learn so they can access the online network easily finding meaningful information.
The disadvantage of using tablet, students may be addicted to use it all the time.
The effect of that makes their eyes trouble. Moreover, they probably
don't pay attention to study the subject.
Therefore, teacher should consider about letting them to use the tablet.

There are both helpful and harmful. In the helpful way, students can learn through technology.
It's more attractive for students to learn with tablet. Nowadays, Thai students start using
modern things like computer, smartphone, and tablet when they are young.
They are not like us; when we were young, we played outdoor activities on the ground.
But Thaichildren today, they play with computer. So they like to use computer.
As well as tablet, they like it. If we use tablet for teaching, students will enjoy to learn.
In the harmful way, children will be addicted to it and playing all the time.
They can use it not for learning, but they can play useless games when they use it.

In my point of view, I think using tablet in Thai education system has harmful than helpful.
I mean it has disadvantage more than advantage. However, tablet is one of the tools
for teaching at this time.

Using tablet in Thai education system can be both helpful and harmful
It's depend on how we use it. Not Tablet's fault!!!
As we are going to be a teacher in the future, we have to teach children
to use tablet or any kind of technology into the good way,
such as finding the important information, sharing the education news,
and reading for the place to study.

I think it is harmful because tablet can damage our health.
I will focus on health, Students will concentrate and look at the screen for a along time.
And I can say that what they look is not about learning but it is to play games on tablet for rure
so it leads them to be more unknowledgable.
