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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A substitution its have a possible thinking are in the classroom, but, remaining we have learn in class on subject matter in order by a teachers on the class. So it can be in over subject on the e-learning e-business.

Now, we will discuss on subject in manner e-learning means electronic business communication, media, data, planning, co-ordinate organization by management system services, the subsystem has been depends have a provide output result knowledge for a business for market resources.

Just know its have development is not to substitute e-business learning source. The every business planning is develop management system its have very similar electronic data are provides on information business system. So I have needs approach by subject on see in an e-business learning.

In my point of view e-learning cannot be a substitute for class learning. Students should do their studies by going to school or college. It's the right place for them to develop their knowledge and improve their character as well. It also helps them to know about the people living in the society and create awareness about different matters. It also helps to create relationships and many unforgettable sweet memories for their lives.
