Hi all!

Yes, I think Digital education has taken over the Traditional Education. But as everything has pros and cons, this has too.

But, if we look at it in a positive way then we can see so many advantages of it that Traditional Education couldn't have provided.

Things I really liked about Digital education:.

*Students can learn from anywhere around the world.
*It helped us learning even in this period (COVID-19).
*It helped us in learning so many new features that we were not even aware of.

Things I didn't like about Digital education:

*People who didn't have proper connection wouldn't be able to continue.

*Spending time mostly in Mobile, laptop, tab etc is really harmful. As a student honestly telling My eyes hurt so much that I can't even express.

*Sometimes when we have classes back to back, there's no break at all.

But overall, I wouldn't say that digital education is not that good.

It's really a life saviour for us students but it needs to be well organised and there should not be a barrier of internet connectivity you say or the appliances needed.

Good morning everyone.

According to me, the digital education serving as both boon (by helping the children by continuing their studies in the time of pandemic) and curse (for destroying our old principles of studies) eg. For teaching eye contact with students and for studying interaction with other children and teacher to share the view for practical knowledge are impossible in the time of the online interactive session. We all know during online class on meet we can only see what the teacher is writing or telling but they can't see whether the children are getting it or not. India Principles of education tells us that before becoming a scholar first we should become a good human. In the school or gurukul with the education, we also learn various things like how to talk with each other, how to tackle the problem, how to become a noble citizen, how to respect others etc. With that, we also see many things in our class during class. In school, all children are equal whether they are rich or poor as all are coming and joining the class but The online class are creating a lot of difference in us as all children are not getting things on online class with that some poor children are not having any method by which they can also have access to online education.

We can say it can be boon for Rich students but it is a curse for the poor.

How can we forget the playing, teasing, fighting, laughing, jumping, shouting in our school with our friends?

How can we forget the tight slap that our teacher gave us on seeing the incomplete work?

How can we forget that sharing of tiffin box with our friends in lunch?

How can we forget the bunking of classes?

How can we forget those ideas for not attempting the class tests?

How can we forget the terror of principal and fun of games teacher?

We can't forget a lot of memories in the school building which is very very big and important and special than the online class.

ONLINE EDUCATION IS ONLY GIVING US ACADEMIC KNOWLEDGE WHILE OUR TRADITIONAL EDUCATION WITH ACADEMIC KNOWLEDGE GIVES SO MANY IMPORTANT AND KNOWLEDGE FULL THINGS.

SO, WE CAN'T SAY ONLINE EDUCATION OR DIGITAL EDUCATION HAS TAKEN OVER TRADITIONAL EDUCATION.

Hey friends,

Today, I am going to share my views on the topic: whether digital education has taken over traditional education.

In my point of view, digital and traditional education can play a complementary role in education. There can not be exactly wrong or right. Both the systems have their merits and demerits. Hence we must take advantage of both the systems as a student.

The education industry is no different. Reach of online learning, education providers have taken to the internet, offering courses and training online. But there has been a constant debate on which of the two holds more value to an employer and the student itself.

There was a time when online courses were considered inferior to traditional courses.

Let's take a look at how online education measures up against traditional delivery modes.

1. Flexibility:

Online learning is inherently flexible. For working professionals and people with a family, e-learning offers a way to juggle professional or personal commitments with study. Many online courses are customizable and have options to change the pace of learning.

2. Multimodal Delivery:

Because e-learning courses are delivered over the web, students have the option to choose their style of learning. Online programs allow students to choose the way they learn most effectively. Learners who prefer self-study can choose from millions of self-paced courses in a variety of disciplines. For those who prefer a more classical approach, many online programs also offer live online training with remote instruction, replicating the feel of a face-to-face classroom and real-time learning.

3.Interactive Nature:

The common perception appears to be that online learning\'s biggest downside is the lack of interaction with fellow learners. But recent technological advances have changed all that. Ed-tech majors like Simplilearn have made community interaction and social media an integral part of the online learning experience.

Traditional learning is a lot more rigid. And unlike online courses, which can be accessed from anywhere, on any device, conventional courses are not designed for the mobile generation.

In the modern era, Education has become partially digital in most of the educational institute digital method of teaching are used like in most schools smart board is used to teach the concepts to the students. Not only that but also many teachers used online platforms where they upload there lectures and students prefer those lectures over the physical classrooms as these are cheaper than those and student can take those lectures from anywhere in the world.

I believe the evolution of technology, as well as human beings, go hand in hand.

According to my point of view, productive change must be there rather only change. Traditional education has its own advantages and disadvantages and the same is with digital education. Traditional education makes the class more interactive and interesting, students can clear their doubts then and there, can also meet the faculty outside and discuss their problems sometimes more information can also be gathered related to the topic. Online learning is flexible.

Online programs allow students to choose the way they learn most effectively. Learning tools and technology enable students to develop effective self-directed learning skills.

In my point of view, digital education is one of the upcoming technologies which will benefit us in the near future.

So, I think digital education has taken over traditional education but not completely.

Still, traditional education is more interesting it completely depends on the teacher and class environment.

Thank you Friends.

Good afternoon everyone,

As my point of view, the online education system is better than the traditional education system because, suppose you want to learn some course then you can learn that course from any platforms like Udemy, Coursera, javatpoint, w3school etc. By the way, the traditional education system is also fine but it's become much expensive than the online education system. According to me myself coming from middle-class family so I can't afford money for traditional education system so the conclusion is that online education system is less expensive than the traditional education system.

Thank you.

I think traditional education is better than digital education because in my view experience teaches us a lot and going to school interacting with friends and teachers teaches us as lot more than what online courses can. Digital education can only give us knowledge of some specific course. Govind to school, doing prayers, having fun with friends is a lot more than some online course. The online course will not help people to have the ability to judge someone or to interact with people.

I think nowadays quality teachers are very rarely found in school and colleges because of digital education trends. Student resolves all their query via youtube and unacademic like platform. Also, we found much skilled and quality teacher here in digital education system.

But demerit is we can't learn practical skills like performing experiments of physics and chemistry etc things.

Also, village background students are not aware of these digital learning things.

Yes, in today's technological time, digital education is taking over traditional education.

As we can see during the pandemic time online classes are going on and even there are a lot of online courses which can be done online which is really helpful.

According to me, the traditional education system is much better than the digital one because it focuses on the overall development of a child. Interaction with friends and teachers make student extrovert, a quick learner and also take part in outdoor activities.

In digital education, the only focus is on studies and makes a child introvert where they don't like to interact with anyone.

Hello everyone!

I am Abhi, Going to give my view on digital education has taken over traditional education. So there are both the aspects to look, positive and negative but after all traditional can't be replaced by the online education system. Why, because education system means to provide all the important platforms which is necessary to a student like his physical, psychological, practical, emotional, logical and ethical knowledge with the course-related knowledge. So these all thing is not possible by the online in a proper manner. But one important thing which be can get online is to find the best content and beet teacher on a particular subject. Traditional or is not possible. The condition of traditional education in the village's government college is very bad especially in up because I have experienced. So if you are belonging from rural areas and want to get a good education then definitely go for online with traditional it will help you much to reach out the goal.

Both the system having their own advantage and disadvantage so this is up to you only that how smartly you can choose both according to your requirement. Thank you.

Digital Education will take on traditional education after the pandemic. Within lockdown all the education was online and now students prefer edtech rather than personal tuitions. They consider it convenient due to the flexibility of schedule and better and advanced content. The students do not understand the traditional rot learning concept and require the knowledge of the application of the subject matter to the real world which digital education can explain in a better manner.

Plus the digital-content can be reiterated n number of times if not understand in one go which cannot be the case in the traditional learning with time advancement in the system is necessary and the traditional concepts cannot hold a stand.

Thank You.
