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.

E - Learning can be a substitute for coaching, where we spent lots of time, effort and money.
But it can't be a substitute for classroom study, because in classroom the presence of teacher make lots of effort for help student to understand the topic by understanding the mind of students,
But in e-learning student have to makeover his mind for that particular topic in the particular described manner only.

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 don't think E-learning will substitute classroom learning.
-> Classroom learning does not provide us only knowledge but also helps us to develop our personality and leadership skills.
(We had already seen that in the classroom, every student was divided into some groups and this group was led by some of the students among us which help them to develop leadership skills and situation-handling skills. ).
-> classroom learning also help us to develop thinking skills. Suppose there is a doubt regarding any subject arises in a student's mind then if he will in online learning he has only the option to ask it with teacher who will give straight forward answer but if he will in the classroom he can ask it with different different students who will give its own opinion about this which helps in the development of thinking skills.

Yes, I think e-learning is much better because there are a lot of things we can learn online. Some argue that it can be distracting and misused, but for a disciplined person, it is not even a distraction.
Additionally, nowadays, there are many student communities where one can freely ask anything without feeling odd or embarrassed. These communities are very healthy, devoid of hate or jealousy, and always supportive.

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.

Hello friends, I think E-learning can't be a substitute of classroom learning. Because the main disadvantage of e-learning is that it affects your personality. You can't talk to your teacher and friends face to face. It makes you an introvert. And also you can't clear your doubt properly. Sometimes the network problem is there. And the environment of study which we get in the classroom that we can't get anywhere. In school, we are in a discipline not in the home.

Hi to one and all.
In my opinion, it is not very much useful because e-learning will not give you a platform for thinking it just provides a smart education, our brain will get stuck in learning few things only but conventional studies gives a platform to think more in a innovative way.

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.
