mention it forms part of our daily life, at all ages.
Paragraph: It has advantages and disadvantages. New laws have been set up to reduce abuse

learning, in all fields, at all ages, formally or informally. It helps us to access information
easily and quickly, at low cost but we have to see how relevant and reliable it is to our needs.

people in our fields).

reading as well)
