Computer technologies are more accessible and cheaper, as the result, more adults work at home and children study at home. Is this a positive or negative development?随着计算机技术越来越方便和便宜，使得更多的成年人和孩子在家工作学习。这是一个积极的发展还是消极的?

The wide spread of telecommunication technology has opened up possibilities for working and studying at home. With necessary equipment, such as the Internet, laptops and printers, employees nowadays can work from home at ease and students can enjoy infinite access to knowledge through distance-learning.

One of the most obvious advantages of this development is greater flexibility. By working remotely, employees can choose to perform daily work after they finish household chores or childcare responsibilities, rather than sticking to a fixed timetable. Students can manage time and plan their learning process in line with their actual command of lessons, since on-line courses spare them the trouble of struggling to keep up with teachers in classes. Another benefit is enhanced availability of employment and education. Home-working makes it more possible for employers to recruit people living in another city or even disabled workers, thus making job opportunities more accessible to individuals. Similarly, for students who live far away from school or those with physical handicaps, online learning is remarkably favorable.

On the other hand, it should be noted that this trend might bring about some problems. Employers may have to face the difficulty in monitoring and evaluating employees' performance, if a company is largely dominated by a flexible work mode. Likewise, distance-learning may lead to the possibility that some young students who lack self-discipline would be affected by violence and pornography on the Internet. However, these troubles can be solved by strengthening supervision. To be specific, employers can make a detailed daily task list for workers and check their work on a regular basis. As for students, giving timely parental guide and limiting their access to the internet is a productive way of protecting them from going astray.

My view is that working and studying at home is a positive development. Yet in the meantime, relevant methods should be worked out to prevent the problems that are likely to arise from this move.
