IV. Learning Assessment

Just like the comparison of the written texts Ode to a Shoe and Technical
Specifications for Manufacturing Tennis Shoes, write a short essay or a poem about
your chosen object. Then write a Technical Specifications for the object you chose.

We all know the computer. It is one of the biggest inventions


of modern science. A laptop is a smaller version of a computer. It does the
same work as a computer does. But there are so many benefits and
advantages to having a laptop. It is easy to carry and it can be used
remotely. You can carry this machine anywhere with you. You can keep
that in your backpack or there are some different bags for laptops. There is
a built-in mouse and keyboard in it. You don’t need to use any portable
keyboard or mouse. But if you want to use one, you can use it because it
has so many USB ports. The LCD screen of a laptop is so good that it is
almost like a portable LCD monitor. It is also known as a notebook
computer. The use of a laptop has made the education sector so much
easier. Most international universities are providing their lessons through
it. If you have got one, you don’t need any books. It can be read and
written on. You can store all of your books there and read them whenever
you want. You can carry it with you in the classroom and use it anytime.
Overall, it has lots of advantages that have made education easier. If you
are an engineer or working in a company that needs to present your
project in a remote place, you can use your laptop to show your project. It
has made these things so much simpler and easier. Now, professional
people prefer laptops over desktop computers. I have one and I love to use
it so much.
