Write an article on the topic ‘Integrating Technology in Teaching Writing’

  The learning of English has become more important due to the development of world and technology. As a results, teachers’ are now using some of the technology to interact with their students.  Using technology in teaching and learning is very common nowadays. It is no longer a new thing to us as it seems like everyone was using it. 
  In my opinion, I think that using such technology in teaching writing is good. One of it is the Electronic portfolio or E-portfolio. Through E-portfolio, ones can published their work online and their friends will be able to give feedback and comments. Besides that, the students are able to expand their creativity on using the templates. By using E-portfolio, they have the freedom to come up with any ideas which is relevant and acceptable. 
  However, there are the disadvantages of using it. The first one is the students will tend to use informal writing habits such as using short forms like what they do when using Facebook. The second one is decreased educational effectiveness within a classroom and allow for problems down the line in the child's schooling.
  In conclusion, the using of technology is good but some may say that it is not as they have their own reason why they said so. So, there is no right or wrong answer for this. It depends on someone on how they think they can deal with it.
