The trend of e-learning is growing exclusively in all educational institutions. But somehow, students find problem in using it.

Promote e-learning at tuition centres as well
e-learning has proved to be the next step in the development and the advanced educational system. It is increasingly becoming a way of providing quick delivery of lessons to the students. But till now, some of the students came to know about them personally. At many educational institutions, students can take advantage of the latest technology. Students can themselves choose to study specific and relevant areas of the learning material without focusing on each and every area. The students should individually know the platforms of e-learning. The online mode of learning should be promoted in tuition centres as well.

e-learning not a substitute to teachers
Today’ s era is an era of technology and advancement. So, it becomes essential for a student to keep himself updated with e-learning tools to pace up with the contemporary world. As far as the students from metropolitan cities or urban areas are concerned, the students are sufficiently equipped and trained with e-learning tools. Most of the schools in these areas have smart class rooms which form the basis of e-learning. But the problem lies in the case of rural areas where either the technology has not reached or the students are not aware about it. A lot needs to be done to educate the rural students about the e-learning techniques. Special funds should be created by the educational institutes for the purpose of providing e-learning. The students should be encouraged to make use of the e-learning techniques. The uninterrupted power supply should be assured to rural areas so that there is no hindrance in the process of e-learning. The teachers too should be trained enough to use e-learning techniques. e-learning is just a facilitator in learning. It can never replace a physical teacher.

Education for all
Fruitful results have started coming out of the use of technology. Education, which was approachable to only who can afford them have now reached to every single person. All barriers of gender, age, place, and economical background have become things of the past. Educational institutes can play a vital role in promoting such platforms. Limitless merits can be gained. Different and interesting methods of teaching, new researches and updates, better and depth understanding of concepts are few to mention here. In the long run, it is students who are going to get reward with e-learning. If students are clear about their subjects they are going to feedback to society in a better way.

Time for visual learning
Educational institutions are the best platform to start a trend, to inculcate values and to implement new and advanced technology. In the tech-savy era, the field of education has evolved and advanced to the level of e-learning. Byju’s learning app and many others are innovative methods to make students learn the concepts practically and through life examples. Schools can make students learn from el earning apps by giving individual topics for presenting in the class. This will result in better understanding and learning. Also, for teaching difficult topics teachers can also make students understand them through smart screens in classrooms. Learning online also prevents boredom and gives studying an exciting angle. Visual memory is an important aspect which comes when we learn through videos and this also stays for a longer time.

Educational institutions should introduce students with the e-learning tools, tell them how to use it and what benefits they will get from using it. As doing everything online is the latest and prevailing system of the society.

Take a break from traditional system
Today’s era of virtual world, learning has completely transformed the way in which learning is imparted to students. There is a need to take a break from traditional methods of learning and create the interests in students to learn in a better way. Instead of notebooks and pens or pencils if there would be techno related stuff like laptops, tablets, mac books etc this will create more interest in students towards study. Schools and Colleges must use smart class in their daily routine other than oral lectures and instead of providing written notes to the students , teachers must provide students with pdf’s and power point presentations for field related work and for notes. This will enhance the capability of students to do work in a dedicated manner. There are many platforms of e-learning through which one can get information and better process of learning as they can play and pause the videos uploaded by the websites and students can understand the topic more well and better then they used to do in classrooms.

Good infrastructure to serve the purpose

The social context of learning is increasingly shaped by digital media and together with personal ownership of various devices influences expectations and modes of exchange, experts look to such advancements for great efficiency, continuous enhancement and an opportunity to find the right mix of educational tools to maximise the learning experience. For educational institutions, to help the students to use e-learning tools is not an automatic, rather a complex and multifaceted process that includes adoption of technology as well as curriculum inclusion, pedagogically-led and learner-centric approach, institutional readiness and teacher competencies.

Promoting Digital India in real sense
Digital India is impossible without online tools. e-learning is necessary in today’s era. It has become an important part of our life and educational institutions helps in providing platform to the students in e-learning. First of all , in order to learn these tools, basic infrastructure and trained teachers are required and many schools lack adequate facilities. Teachers should encourage the students in using these tools but keeping in mind the dangers of these tools. There should be one compulsory lecture on e-learning where teachers will teach the students about the advantages and disadvantages of these tools. Teachers should use PPTs in teaching pedagogy so that interest can be created among students. e-learning helps in saving time and reducing paper wastage. So it is necessary that students should well aware in using these tools.

Quick delivery of lessons
We are in that era when information and technology is ruling the roost. e-banking, e-trading and the business are carried out through electronic route. Education is also not aloof of e-learning. Various books and other reading material are available online. In this age of technology, books are being replaced by gadgets for leisure learning. Various advanced schools and colleges are converting their chalk and talk methods of teaching to e- learning and students are preferring e-learning tools over conventional books. Teachers must help students when they are getting any material through e-learning because every information may not be authentic. This a cost-effective way of studying.

A potential tool to promote efficiency
With changing times, the methods of imparting education too have changed. In these times of e-learning, students can very well employ the tools of e-learning that have a distinctive edge over the traditional methods. Live instructions through live broadcasts work very well for specialised curricula, especially in cases wherein the students are at a location that is far from the teacher’s location. Also, students from different areas can simultaneously learn from live broadcasts. Video-conferencing is another effective tool whereby students from different schools, different regions, can learn and interact. Remote test administration, self-paced learning, e-readers, virtual textbooks – the e-learning tools have the potential to change the very techniques of education. Herein, schools can play an important role by making e-learning accessible to the students. Minna Zutshi
