It's made research easily in many ways. You can't always trust what you find but the quantity is vast. It's been helpful for finding sources e.g. in history I can try to find books for sources in my coursework. It's also good for examples e.g. using situations to show application in sociology.

Its also helped the methods in which work is handed in and evaluated by using learning platforms such as Fronter. This enables tutors to give effective feedback that the student can take into consideration and improve their work on.

I suppose it is easier - especially for the more basic 'define' homeworks we get - but there is something rewarding about hunting down a fact after trawling through several textbooks and encyclopedias!
I'm only in Y11 though so whether books or the Web will be more useful in the future... :iiam:
