Question

[1]. Passage:

When a single tablet arrived in a remote classroom, it did not replace the teacher; it exposed what the teacher had been doing without recognition. Children who had never touched a screen learned to pause, replay and test themselves, while the teacher learned to ask questions she had not asked before. The danger was not the device but the assumption that access equals learning. In villages where electricity fails and data is costly, a glossy video means little if no one discusses it afterwards. The most useful digital lesson, teachers found, was not the longest or the most colourful, but the one that ended with a task on paper, a debate in the courtyard and a question carried home. Technology, in this sense, is a guest in the classroom: welcome only when it strengthens conversation, memory and practice, not when it silences them.

What is the passage's central caution about digital tools?

1.
Rural teachers reject all technology
2.
Tablets should replace teachers entirely
3.
Access to a device does not by itself guarantee learning
4.
Colourful videos are always effective
