Rate the following essay on its writing, argument, and language skills:
In the article "Making Mona Lisa Smile," the author describes a new technology which enables computers to decipher human emotions. There has been some debate on whether or not schools should incorporate this new technology into their computers to see how a student is feeling. I personally believe that using this new technology in the classroom is valuable for a few reasons.

One reason why I think that this technology would be valuable in schools is so that teachers can use this information to see if they way they are teaching is effective. If the software finds that a student is extremely bored or confused then, a teacher may decide to change up their teaching strategy and start doing something that will not bore students and give them all the possible chances they can get to learn. One of the creators of this software, Dr. Huang supports this belief as well by saying "a classroom computer could recognize when a student is becoming confused or bored".

Another reason why this technology would be vital in schools is to see how students are doing mentally. The stresses of school and other things often gets to students especially in high school but they usually choose not to seek help when they need it. So if this technology could tell when a student is feeling stressed or sad an adult could start getting them the help that they need to feel better. Teachers could also use this information to tell if they are giving out too much stressful and strenuous work and need to cut down on it some. The technology that has been created is pretty much tested and approved as well, "imagine a computer that knows when you're happy or sad," is stated to show how effective the software would be in finding a students emotions.

So I definitely believe that incorporating this technology into schools would help in many different ways and is very valuable. It would help teachers alter their plans to incorporate more fun lesson plans that keep students participating but also gets the point across so students actually learn. In another way it could help school staff help students in need who may be depressed or stressed out. These are just a few ways that this technology could help out of the many possibilities that the software could be used for.
