E-learning

E-Learning
From buying grocery to booking tickets, everything, these days is done online. Internet has provided a great deal of facilities and opportunities for the people. But, this can also prove to be useful for the students to keep abreast with the rapidly developing world. Teaching through digital technology in the digital age is the best way to arouse interest in students as all of us have a tendency to love watching and doing stuff rather than simply reading. Cramming answers never helps and only makes them dull. Learning the same lessons by watching videos not only fascinates us but also makes us curious. These lessons are then never forgotten. Children will also find them much more interesting than books. So, if all the lessons from all the subjects are taught in the digital way, children can benefit immensely. Also, for a subject like computers, activities from outside the syllabus will help children learn something unique. As we are aware that technology has advanced a lot, if our kids don’t master computers, they will never be able to keep pace with the international students. Learning by reading is not as effective as learning by doing is. This has also been proved in a study.

So, why not adapt a method of learning that students love and will also benefit from. After all, the whole idea of education was to equip students with skills and knowledge they can use in future. Education should be teaching the students in the best way so that they don’t learn only for exams but also for life and for fun. Students should never forget the concepts, they have learnt and use them in life. All this will help the children learn in an interactive way. I believe in just one line:- When learning becomes fun, fun becomes learning!
