             good reasons for using computers instead of paper:




  • you could save trees and the environment by not using paper.
  • easier to get help (internet) or asking others for help or finding out other peoples opinions.
  • you could use Skype, Facebook, Google or twitter to talk to others instead of calling or messaging them or sending them photo copies. 
  • its quicker to to type and it looks more professional then handwriting



              bad reasons for using the computer instead of paper:


  • you could lose your work or it might get deleted.
  • you would rely more on on electronic stuff and you wont even see people a lot anymore cause you would call them or text them instead of meeting up with them.
  • if you don't have a computer or laptop then it would cost more to buy one in stead of handwriting which cost less.
  • miss understand things and how they feel  when your using electronic communications
