• children could be easily depend on internet or the laptops
• children only use the internet to find information
• they can't really concentrate because they can surf on other pages while they had to work in the internet
• they only communicate with their friends by the internet

2. What's the best way to use it at school?- which subjects?

• for english/french lessons to use a dictionary or english/french newspapers
• mathematics to demonstrate something
• economy to analyse some statistics

3. Learning with laptops better/more effectively/faster?- how does this work?

→ No, because

• you can't really concentrate..
• children are more diverted..
• you don't learn as intensive as without laptops..

→ in some ways yes, because

• you can search information faster
• you know something more about some themes
• you can contrast different meanings from other persons
