All over the world, lots of people drink carbonated drinks daily. According to the presented diagram I am going to present summarised, vital information about process of making carbonated drinks.

The first stage is basically cleaning the water, which will be used to produce fizzy drinks. Water goes through filter and then necessary chemichals are added. For the next step, pump pushes water to the electric heaters where water gets very hot. Then, water cools down by going through cooling pipe and enters a tank, where carbon dioxide is mixed into it. After water is gassed, it goes through the mixing stage where other ingridients, such as colouring, syrup and flavour are added. The drink enters filtering and filling process. At this stage cans and bottles are being filled with liquid and prepared for the next stage, which is packaging. After all this steps fizzy drinks are sent all over the world.

Computers are now the basis of the modern world. Some people say, they should therefore be introduced into classrooms, and their programs used for direct teaching purposes. However, dependence on computers in teaching may carry a certain degree of risk to students.

The first, and perhaps strongest atgument for using computers during teaching programs, is their multitasking. Computers give opportunity to use enormous number of usefull programs. Students can write their essays faster if using text editors. Those written in computers are easier to check, beacuse teacher doesn't have to cope with different fonts and ureadible handwriting. Another example is teaching math with computer. Students would be able to solve mathematical problems faster if provided with advanced calculators and 3D graphic programs. It would make mathematic more understandable and accessable for all students.

On the other hand this idea has some minuses. Firstly, sitting in front of the computer is not healthy and can result in bad posture, vision problems and addiction. Computer addiction is already a growing problem and using computers in classrooms would make it worse. Another disadvantage is dependence on machines and electricity. If some of the computers broke, teacher wouldn't be able to make a lesson for every student. Maybe in the future people who studied using only computer, won't be able to work or solve problems without electricity and internet. That would be a serious problem.

On balance, there are advantages and disadvantages of such solution, but none overweighs either. Personally, I think it is important to find a perfect proportion between normal lessons and those with help of computers. In my opinion computers should be introduced into classrooms, but wisely and not for the entire teaching programme.
