Sweden Reintroduces Traditional Books in Schools After Digital-Only Education Experiment
In 2009, Sweden embarked on a bold journey to digitize its classrooms, aiming to revolutionize the way students learn. The government envisioned a future where computers and tablets would transform education into an interactive and accessible experience. By replacing traditional textbooks with digital alternatives, Sweden sought to make learning more dynamic and prepare students for the digital demands of the 21st century.
Despite the initial optimism, the digital transition did not deliver the anticipated results. Although Sweden maintained its high ranking in global education standards, studies and feedback from educators and parents revealed challenges. One significant issue was the decline in essential skills such as reading and writing. Teachers noticed that students struggled to concentrate and retain information when using screens compared to traditional paper-based learning methods.
Distractions from digital devices further compounded the problem. Lots of students get sidetracked by games or surfing the web during class instead of sticking to their studies. While computers and tablets were intended for learning, students often used them for gaming or browsing the internet during school hours, reducing classroom engagement.
Recognizing these challenges, Sweden has decided to reverse course. From 2022 to 2025, the government will invest €104 million to provide every student with paper textbooks for each subject. The decision reflects the government’s understanding that (1)_____ technology has its advantages, traditional teaching methods are vital for fostering critical thinking and comprehension skills.
“This move is about finding a balance,” said Education Minister Lena Johansson. “We’re not abandoning digital tools altogether, but we’re ensuring that they complement rather than replace the foundational aspects of learning.” By reinstating printed material, Sweden hopes to rebuild fundamental learning skills (2)_____ continuing to use digital tools where they can add value.
The new approach aims to harmonize digital and traditional methods to create a more comprehensive educational experience.

50. Which word correctly completes gap (1) (paragraph 4) and gap (2) (paragraph 5)?
[A] and
[B] where
[C] how
[D] but
[E] while
⬛ Gabarito: (E)
đ§ 1️⃣ Leitura orientada da questĂŁo
A questĂŁo pede um conector Ășnico que complete corretamente duas lacunas em parĂĄgrafos diferentes, mantendo coesĂŁo e sentido lĂłgico.
No parĂĄgrafo 4, a frase opĂ”e duas ideias: a existĂȘncia de vantagens da tecnologia versus a necessidade de mĂ©todos tradicionais. No parĂĄgrafo 5, o texto expressa simultaneidade/contraste: uso de materiais impressos ao mesmo tempo em que se mantĂȘm ferramentas digitais.
Portanto, o conector deve permitir contraste equilibrado e também simultaneidade.
đ 2️⃣ AnĂĄlise tĂ©cnica das alternativas (uma a uma)
[A] ❌
Incorreta. And indica simples adição.
No parågrafo 4, o texto exige oposição qualificada, não soma de ideias.
[B] ❌
Incorreta. Where é advérbio relativo de lugar ou situação.
Não introduz contraste nem simultaneidade lógica entre açÔes.
[C] ❌
Incorreta. How introduz modo ou maneira.
Não conecta oraçÔes com valor contrastivo ou concessivo, exigido nos dois trechos.
[D] ❌
Incorreta. But expressa contraste direto e exclusivo.
Funciona no parĂĄgrafo 4, mas nĂŁo funciona no parĂĄgrafo 5,
pois ali a ideia Ă© de coexistĂȘncia (nĂŁo abandono do digital).
[E] ✅
Correta. While pode expressar contraste suave (“although”) e tambĂ©m
simultaneidade (“at the same time”).
Ă o Ășnico conector que funciona adequadamente nas duas lacunas.
⚠️ 3️⃣ Armadilhas clĂĄssicas da banca
A banca costuma testar conectores que funcionam em apenas uma lacuna, mas falham na outra.
❗ Regra de ouro: quando a questĂŁo pede uma Ășnica palavra para dois contextos, escolha o conector semanticamente mais flexĂvel.
đ§ 4️⃣ Resumo B3GE™ Master
✔ While permite contraste e simultaneidade.
✔ But Ă© contrastivo demais e quebra o sentido do parĂĄgrafo 5.
✔ Conectores simples (and, how, where) nĂŁo atendem Ă lĂłgica textual exigida.
đ Gabarito confirmado: (E)
