Learning is not a solitary activity to be imparted by machines. The degree of human interaction makes it imperative for us to learn in an environment where interaction is possible. Thus, I would prefer to go to a traditional school over learning at home through televisions and computers.
The first reason for my choice is interaction itself. Learning by oneself gives you a varied and rich perspective and it is this perspective that contributes to our intellect. Learning at home will only give one the perspective of a computer program or a television program and will be extremely limited in nature. Interaction has several other benefits also. It imparts in us a sociability that is extremely important. It teaches us the importance of brainstorming together because many minds are truly better than one. In school, we can also get the perspective or different teachers and enrich our own.
The second reason for my choice is that at school we can benefit from a plethora of resources like libraries and computer labs. These resources are not available in the homes of most students and access to them is extremely important to our development. At home, the very best resource that we can enjoy is the Internet and this is extremely limited due to the vast variety of information available that is virtually impossible to sift through. In a library, one can get more focus in the search for information and thus can achieve erudition more easily.
The last reason for my choice is that in school, one can also have a social life and get a more varied experience because of the large range of extra and co curricular activities that school students participate in. Thus, we will emerge from school truly social beings rather than the hermits we will surely emerge as if we study at home. The planet is becoming smaller day-by-day and social abilities are truly important in the present day context.
Thus, I hope that I have been able to convince who is contemplating studying at home that this is not a very good option because of the tremendous benefits of attending school.
