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.

E-learning breaks the limitation of physical barrier. Due to its wide reach it allows student from any part of the world to access education dealing with any subject with E-learning students are exposed to different methods of education. The use of images, sound, text, videos can lead to better understanding of any subject and student feels more active through such system.
E-learning breaks the conventional monotonous system of education when a teacher used to lecture on the subject in the same boring manner E-learning can also save trees by saving paper. Many e-learning courses are entirely self-contained, presenting all learning content online, or providing alternatives to paper-based forms of COMMUNICATION through such tools as email, PDF manuals, synchronous classrooms, and other web-based tools.

Good morning to everyone.
The subject E-learning is a substitute for classroom learning, From my point of view it is not correct because of that, e-learning means to study by using a computer.
All the disadvantages of E-learning are,
(1) The student loses their eyesight easily by watching video more time.
(2) For poor people, they don't have enough money to buy a computer or laptop or smartphone.
(3) ) There is no relation between teacher and student directly.
(4) E-Learning is not possible in every place because of errors in the network.
(5) It does not develop communication skills in public.
(6) By the use of smartphones or laptops by the student, they attract the other social media like Facebook, Instagram, Whatsapp leaving their study. So E-learning is not good for every student.

Greetings for everyone.
We barely know about this e-learning before covid. During covid times almost all students were introduced to e-learning. This online platforms for studying will be useful for those who cannot step out due to various reasons, for the students who are taking coachings along with academics as well, during pandemics such as covid it will help us a lot and these platforms helped our education system not to fall behind.
But for children physical classes are suggested as they will learn more in physical classes and this will develop more skills like communication and will need practical sessions for physics, chemistry and industrial projects. Extra curricular activities are required for students which should be physical. We can learn more when we do projects physically.

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.

Hi friends,
Yes, I think both are having same positive and negative abilities. Coming to e-Learning it is the best way to save our time. And we got so much information. But, classroom learning I think it is a practical knowledge because someone was explained what they knew. So many people said school days were very good. Because they were enjoyed their studies with friends. Those are most memorable moments in our life. But according to education point of view we can save our time or we can give so much information about that topic. But, some are very interested to explaining from others, according to that they were easily understanding the situation.
In my opinion everything has good or bad perspective. So whatever we choose we should followed that in a good manner.
Thank you.

Hi Friends!
Now a days to the great extent, many has a computer system and internet at their homes. This is all we need for E-Learning. ! Yes. It's having lot of importance now. Many people are showing interest to learn the things through online. We have many good sites which provide E-Learning according to the student's needs. The main advantage of this is, its saves our time and one form of quick learning I can say. But apart from pros's, we even have some con's which includes. Getting tired easily because of sitting before system for hours and there will be no immediate clarification of doubts.
So, I conclude that we should have both. E-Learning, class-room learning as well. We should make use of these two types of learning to make ourselves experts! :-).
Thank you.

YES, With e-learning a person can study at his own pace.
Since the curriculum is shown before the e-lectures commence, thus the person knows that he has a certain amount of task to be completed, so would be able to cover every aspect of it.
2nd most obvious reason would be Sickness.
If a person suffers from a prolonged sickness, she cannot attend classroom lectures.
Whereas there is no time boronation to e-learning she can complete pending work without missing any bit of it.
BESIDES, E-learning paves way for students /people who live in different spheres of the world to get teaching from worlds best teachers for ex. From IVY league colleges.
Also, Since E-learning is cheap compares to live classroom, this gives the weaker section of the globe access to education.

No, absolutely not but e-learning is one only substitution in the current situation of COVID-19. First of all, in India internet do not reach every place, secondly, a huge amount of students don not have a smartphone, thirdly in a remote area of India do not have electricity so those students who are poor they are can't reach higher studies or did not able compleated their education so India will miss hudge amount of educated human resource. But if classroom learning and e-learning merged with each other then we get a better result. Those two methods can not substitute or complement each other but we need two methods simultaneously, then we get a far better result. So, we need classroom digital learning these things will produce a better result for students.

Hello friends.
A great discussion is going on E-learning and classroom learning.
I just simply say that they are two sides of coin to decide one side.
They are like two eyes. We cane see with one eye also, but we have both. In this way make use of both in a proper way.
Classroom learning:.
Advantages:.
Attitude, discipline, body-language, leadership, friendship, how-to-speak in front of a group etc.
Disadvantages:.
Time consuming, if teacher is not good, lack of practical approach etc.
E-learning:.
Advantages:.
Fast, efficient, practical oriented, time saving etc.
Disadvantages:.
No immediate clarification of doubt, no exchange of ideas, no innovation.
So, Finally lets blend these two together into a single cup to make good coffee.
Good evening.
