Suggestion. 
Gợi ý 1: I don't agree with the idea that with the help of technology, students will
benefit greatly from studying by themselves at home. They still need teacher to
explain the idea for them. Sometimes they understand incorrectly and teacher can
help them to understand correctly.
Gợi ý 2: I agree with idea advanced technology will help students greatly in
studying by themselves at home. Firstly, studying at home will help us save so
much money. We don't have to buy so many books and school supplies. It will help
us save time and energy too because we don't have to spend much time on
travelling to school. Secondly, you can see there is a lot of traffic on the way
especially in rush hours. There are always accidents on the road. Studying at home
will help us avoid dangers on the way to school and make traffic less heavy. In
addition, we can search for information easily and quickly with a tablet. It's very
convenient. It helps us to save time and we can finish our projects quicker and
make them more informative. In conclusion, I think advanced technology really
helps us in studying and it brings us more joy in learning new knowledge.
