Whether Digital Education has taken over Traditional Education?

Undoubtedly Digital Education has become the most conventional and most accepted form of education nowadays. Most people advocate for its positive impacts. But I want to put light on its few negative impacts.

1) It creates an E-Divide. Rural and poor people find it hard to access Digital Education. The rich and privileged student will take advantages. The unprivileged students will lag behind. This will widen the gap.

2) It increases screen time. This puts a lot of stress on the eyes and the mind.

3) Lack of Teacher-Student interaction. It a kind of a monologue, where only the lecturer delivers his lecture and there is no input from the student side.

4) Lack of hands-on particle. Student can't access laboratory through online mode. Physical training is missing.

5) Lack of interaction of students with their fellow classmates. No knowledge sharing. No traditional in-classroom discussion.

So, I conclude Digital Education has some negative impacts too. We can't overlook them. The government must help unprivileged students- provide free smartphones, free internet access, etc.

Hello Everyone.

With the fastest growing world, technology is growing much faster. Earlier, students and professionals both were dependent on some institute, teacher and notes in order to learn a new topic or subject.

They need to dress up, spend time travelling every scheduled day at a particular hour given by the teacher to learn something new.

But, Nowadays, everything is much easier and convenient. Everything is available digitally either on youtube, where you can learn for free or buying some online courses, which has lots of advantages such as.

1- Cheaper than the coaching provided by the teachers physically teaching.
2- No extra spending on travelling including time-saving.
3- videos are accessible for a lifetime is one of the huge advantages.

So, yes!

Digital education has taken over traditional education and is more convenient for everybody who has the eager to learn more things even though he does not have sufficient money to spend,

Also for people who are busy working and cannot take out time to go for traditional education.

Thank you.

Hello friends,

Today we are going to discuss digital and traditional education. Nowadays, digital education is preferred because of the covid19 pandemic. There are some advantages and disadvantages of digital education over traditional education.

1. In digital education students have more flexibility on time, and are less costly compared to the traditional ones.

2. In digital education concept can be grasped 100 % with the help of videos and images.

These videos give a clear understanding of the topic as well as the concept.

3. But in digital soft skills will not develop as there is no interaction with teachers and friends.

So traditional is good for soft skills as these are mandatory for a student to grow in their career. In the traditional education system, practical knowledge can be achieved. Which is not possible in digital education.

So, in my view, traditional and digital both are good in their perspectives.

Digital education will get education to individuals in small villages and village schools ensuring equal opportunity for the village children. Our future intellectual potentials lies in the village populace. Imagine a doctoral student who can train in a village hospital and simultaneously study digitally. Digital will save millions for the country when we can avoid the countless money spend today on transportation to educational institutions. However there are some disadvantages for eg. Like social interactions, distraction while studying in homes, etc, which can be overcome. This of course is a vast topic for detailed discussion.

There is both equal importance of Digital education as well as Traditional education. These are the playing the vast role in recent trends.

Digital education are running through digital technology with internet like whatsup, youtube, zoom app etc. Example of Some digital educations like Topper, Byju etc.

Where Traditional education means the It is a two way communication. Direct and face to face interaction between teacher and students in a physical class room.

So, now we discuss Both advantages, disadvantages of Digital education& Traditional education.

2. Easily access on Mobile phone and computer.
3. Need not require a particular location.
4. Individuality.

Hi Guys,

As per the given topic, yes digital education has taken over the traditional education. May be due to the attraction of children's toward the technology now a days. The things which are taught in classroom traditionally, the same thing is taught in the digital platform also but the attraction of children toward the technology is so much now a days that they don't even try to learn that way, the whole concept of learning has gonna changed today.

Here nobody should be blamed for this, as time passes it's in nature of human beings that they change according to time. But the truth is not everyone today prefers digital platform to study, like those who are elders, those who learnt more quickly in traditional way they don't prefer or they don't feel comfortable on digital platform. But equal respect should be given to traditional way also. But there are many drawbacks of traditional education, if someone wants a help of tutor at a particular time he can't get help all the time but in digital education you can access any time or anywhere through internet.

But there are drawbacks of digital education too like if you have any doubt at a particular instant, you can't ask at the moment, instead of that you have to type your doubt in the comment box and wait for the reply that might come after someday, or may not. Digital education is also cheap as compared to traditional education.

Warm Greetings everyone,

I would like to add to the discussion that it is traditional education which we have learnt so far so long and that has made us where we are today.

Talking about digital education it is something which is monotonous and you're not able to connect to the person because it's either too fast or too slow and you can't even complaint about the same because it's equal to all.

Whereas traditional education is a two way communication where we can meet the faculty in person and sit in a classroom where we can meet and know people of our kind who are interested in the same course and that brings a sense of competition and Passion for the subject.

Although the future is going to be about digital education but it won't be successful if traditional education is combined with the same.

As well aware of that every coin has two sides each has it's advantages and disadvantages, first we'll talk about the disadvantages, talking about digital education the more focus is on the theory part students don't get the practical knowledge.

Now talking about Traditional Education, as we know that when we attend classes and get the day-to-day assignments and homework it will help students in their practical knowledge too.

If traditional education will be totally eliminated from our country it will be more hard for the people who do not know much about technology.

According to me, both digital and traditional education is good at their own place. We can't compare them and said that one take over other.

In many aspect traditional education is better than the digital one like in traditional system children interact with other children, learn the discipline and how to communicate with others or in public. This all things help in there whole life and all these things are not taught by the digital system.

AND, We know that the digital system is cheaper and more flexible. We can use them anytime and anywhere.

It all depends upon the children that, through which education system they are more comfortable and explore there knowledge more.

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.
