Directions: Read the following passage and answer the question that follows:
Some teachers believe that good old traditional methods of teaching are quite reliable and there is no urgent need to revamp the whole system. However, modern educators are pretty sure that learning should be fun. And the more fun a student has, the more successful the results of the teaching process will be. And nowadays computer and digital technologies are the ultimate extensions of fun.

It was quite clear from the very beginning that a child or even a teenager needs some sort of guidance to enter the Internet world, somebody who would teach them to behave at different forums and online discussions. 
But sooner or later all of them come to some sort of a conclusion that computer skills are indispensable for children not to lag behind the time and be competitive at the current education and workforce market.
