Q. Suppose you are Rohini Verma you have been asked to take part on behalf of Raman house in a debate competition. The topic of the debate competition is
"online education only is a future." Write a debate on the topic.
Very good morning to all dignitaries, venerated judges, respected principals, teachers, and my dear friends. I am Rohini Verma of class Xyz. It is a matter of extreme privilege for me to represent the Roman house in this competition. I am strongly for the topic which is proposed here to debate on. Kindly allow me to start. With the unwanted introduction of covid-19 in this world, online education became a new thing to talk about and practice widely. First, we need to understand what online education is. The education with the help of modern gadgets without being present physically in the school classrooms is called online education. Thanks to this virus forces the world to explore the possibility of online classrooms. Believe me it has been a fantastic experience for me till now. Taking classes vertically going through the recorded lectures at my own convenient time anytime doubt clearance what a fantastic experience. Respected judges, I would say even after Covid diminishes this exercise of online education should go on. yes, I agree online education is only the future. Just imagine, no need to go to school — everything is available on the screen. No need for big school buildings. No need to build new infrastructure. Government can use the present school buildings for other propose. No traffic on the roads. No pollution. Respected judges as the chief of WHO have advised the world to prepare for more fatal diseases, therefore, we should be coming up with certain shortcomings of online education like lack of social interaction no face-to-face communication, etc. But I would like to say that all these shortcomings can easily be won. For social interaction, we need not go to school. We can have social interaction with our Street friends also. You can make a direct video call to your rivals when they wail of network failure. Respected judges I humbly submit that yet our world is in a developing phase. Presently we are working on the 5G technique. Remember we are talking about the future. So obviously in the future, we shall have strong technology. But only for a few shortcomings, we can not Danny the importance of online education. We have to accept this as a failure in a future reality. We have to work on developing the communication infrastructure rather than school buildings. Respected judges, our elders, say it is always wise to prepare for failure. That's all from my side. I hope I make my point clear. Thank you for leading my ears. you have been a great audience. I appreciate that. Now please allow me to leave.
