Do you agree that non -digital IMs are still relevant in the 21st century teaching and learning?
Please expound your answer with maximum of 5 sentences.

Yes of course, not because we have modern things today doesn’t mean that old things are not
useable anymore, plus I think that non-digital IMs are still the best because it gives students a
sense of being in school. Non- digital IMs are still usable today, in fact, I still use notebooks to
jut down notes when I am participating in our online class which proves that traditional school
supplies are relevant up until now. I think students are better able to learn if they use non-
digital IMs because they are not distracted by things seen on the internet or technology so they
can more easily focus on tasks, so I think we can still really count on traditional school supplies
for learning and teaching. Apart from the above reasons, we know that not all areas can afford
technological devices or that the area is incapable of having that type of technology as if there is
no electricity or proper infrastructure for, on devices and gadgets, we can use non-digital IMs
such as blackboards, paper and proximity, notebooks, books and so on. It can be used even in
remote areas because it does not require electricity to be used so it is more efficient for students,
these reasons show that, even with modern equipment that we use in learning, it is still reliable
to use our school equipment to be easier to use and more accessible not only to the rich.
