新东方在线雅思为同学们整理了雅思大作文范文之互联网获取信息可以取代学校上学吗，供考生参考学习。

雅思大作文题目：

Schools are no longer necessary because children can get so much information available through the Internet, and they can study just as well at home. 

To what extent do you agree or disagree?

【话题分类】

教育类

【题目解析】

题目大意：能够透过互联网获取的信息如此之多，儿童不再需要上学，在家学习效果也同样好。

题型特点：本题属于同意与否题型。考生需要针对话题表达明确的立场，内容完整涵盖话题核心概念便可。

本文结构：开头段引入话题和表明立场、三个主体段分别介绍三个相关的理由、结尾重申观点。

【难点】对本题中涉及的两种教育/学习方式，考生需要讨论是替代关系是否成立。如果仅仅表达两者可以共同存在，未强调是否认同替代关系，则不属于完整扣题。

【写作思路】

开头段：一些教育学家认为，近年来互联网兴起和信息爆炸，为全面电子学习铺平了道路，并将最终使传统的学校教育过时。虽然这种新模式确实有独特的好处，但它不太可能取代久经考验的课堂教学方法，主要有三个原因。

主体段1：对在线学习的主要担忧是缺乏专业教育工作者的指导。

主体段2：反对在线学习的另一个原因是在家庭环境中难以排除干扰。

主体段3：另一个经常被忽视的因素是负责照顾儿童需要花费大量时间和注意力。

结尾段：总之，我认为学校将继续作为学习的主要场所，主要是因为有着上文解释的不可替代的价值。不过，混合式学习——在线活动补充而不是取代课堂教学——不失为适合数字原生代的解决方案。

【参考范文】

The rise of the Internet and the information explosion in recent years, according to some educationalists, have paved the way for full-fledged e-learning and will eventually make traditional schooling practices obsolete. While this new modality does have unique benefits, it is unlikely a viable alternative to the tried-and-tested classroom approach for three main reasons.

The primary concern about web-based tuition is the lack of guidance by professional educators. Content available online is, in most cases, intended for purposes other than education, so it is often not possible for parents alone to accurately assess their suitability for their children. Experienced teachers, on the other hand, can be much more efficient in curating age-appropriate materials and finetuning learning tasks to suit the needs of their students.

Another reason against virtual learning is the difficulty to remove distractions in the home environment. When seated in front of a laptop at a dining table, casual conversations between family members and sudden noises in the kitchen can divert children’s attention away from the content they are working on. In comparison, a designated classroom and teacher supervision can mean uninterrupted attention during class hours and therefore better outcomes in the long run.

A further, often neglected, factor is the amount of time and attention required on responsible adults. Many parents who are preoccupied with work often struggle to spend quality time with their children, while households with a stay-home mom or dad can suffer from reduced financial capacity. It is therefore understandable for many families to opt for a school-based solution rather than going through the trouble of homeschooling or enrolling their children on cloud-based tuition programmes.

In conclusion, I think schools will continue as the main venue of learning, mainly for the irreplaceable values explained above. That said, a blended approach where online activities supplement, rather than replace, classroom instruction can be a sound solution for the digital native generation.
