E-Learning: A Substitute for Classroom Learning?

Hello friends.

My friends told many things about the advantages and disadvantages. I agree with all this but I only have to say two things that e learning and classroom learning both are good. E-Learning gives us many things than in a bookish way.

I would like say class room learning is important. It is very nice. Eg. if have any doubt, that time you will directly approach your faculty its better than e learning. We consulting the faculty many different ideas will get from them.

E learning is just to use take some notes. Otherwise e learning must not improve our knowledge.

Actually E-learning is a method of teaching in which the class is conducted with the help of Computers, Projector and Internet Technology. E-learning is good for students because if you are pursuing your Technical Degree with a not so good college then the E-learning is best option for for learning new Technologies as well as our Syllabus.

I am not saying that college teachers are not good but they are somehow failed to teach the students with only Book's Content, Sometimes they also even know that what they are teaching. If E-learning Scheme is adopted then the Professors of IIT's IIM's and Research Fellows will prepare the content, They actually know what is the subject they are to teach, They have practical knowledge of subject So the prepared slides etc. Will also contain their practical work on the subject and hence the Learning will be great by E-Learning.

Hello readers in my view I will say e-class is useful for students because it help in learning for not only one student but many in number. And we can learn as many time as we want or of our choice. And many students can learn or understand perfectly. Because many students do not understand in first attempt or in one saying. Some needs two times some three times some five and some ten time also.

We don't have to wait for teacher for time as per her time management. It is better to learn e learning than to waste power or energy of teacher. There are many teachers who take fees in lakhs and do not give as per knowledge. But e-learning is cost less. And with the help of e-class learner can learn at any where as per his choice. And at last I would like to say that we should also develop as per our science. And then and then only we can do progress. Thanks for reading.

As a student, I have the opinion that e-learning cannot be compared to the classroom learning. We cannot take computer as our teacher while learning. Teachers give many extra knowledge while learning and this will improve our general knowledge. But this won't be there in e-learning. In our school, we have e-learning but we find nothing useful in it. We find it as the same copy of our textbooks.

E-Learning is method of learning through computer and use information and communication technology in education system. E-learning can only provide bookish knowledge but it does not develop character of student and no motivation given to student. E-learning is good for skilled student but what about student of low standard.

Here come the necessity of classroom learning. In classroom learning a teacher can understand the mental ability of student and teaches according to it.

Moreover Discipline, communication skill, relationship management, team player quality and moral values can learn through classroom learning.

No that e-learning bad but it is better learning for graduate student not for school student. It should be added to our traditional classroom learning to enhance education system. But it should not replace it.

In my opinion E-learning is good at certain things and rubbish at others. Firstly, we won't get the human touch that is required for a student to learn such as behavior, attitude, practical knowledge about how things have to be done.

Secondly, it purely based on the retention of knowledge by the student for example if you tell me something by email I will forget easily but if you show me practically then I may retain it for long.

E-learning is not for everyone because adults have different learning capability than students and its purely based on the learning style of people. So what I think is e-learning can not be a substitute for classroom learning but if we merge both the areas we can make our education far more better and advanced than earlier.

Hello Everyone !

In my opinion an E-learning can never be a substitute for class room learning (especially till 12th standard at least). But yes we can use it as a helping hand to get more knowledge.

In classroom learning we get to know many important things which we can not get from E- learning. We get to know how to behave, how to interact, how to maintain relations within group or friend circle because now a days study is not bounded to just knowledge of books, it is something beyond it and which can never be taught by E- learning in which to get that knowledge you have to sit in front of machine and you can't even put up questions, you would not get answer of any of your queries through machine. Machine can never understand the understanding level of a student, it will treat each student equally.

And more over what is the need of teachers in our school, colleges if we are going to substitute class room learning with E-learning.

Thank you.

Hi,

According to me, E-learning is preferable only for those who have access to the internet. For rural India, this seems difficult. It's true that E-learning has many advantages over classroom learning such as vast availability of open source softwares, saving time of travel, learning as per our convenience, learning at home without going away from family.

In spite of all these, I guess that E-learning needs time to take over classroom learning. It would happen gradually once Internet reaches each corner of our country.

Dear Team,

Good Morning.

As per below discussion, we are talking about E-learning or Classroom learning.

As per my point of view E-learning is better than classroom, because of today's fast life style & due to shortage of time. 50 to 60 percent of youths are working or start to work. We don't have much time to attend the class or face the traffic. Everybody want promotion and newcomers want jobs. We are using computers, android Tabs etc, we are having world's information at the time, that is the advantage of E-learning.

Classroom learning is also very good, because that time the person go under the observation of teachers or professors & also a huge group of learning student. Classroom is a very good environment, As specific stage of age a person is not used to attend classes at that time he/she will start the study with e-learning.
