Hi guys.

Today we are here to discuss whether digital education has taken over traditional education.

Through my point of view, during this pandemic digital technology is like a boon for the students and teachers.

As They both get the platform to perform their duties.

2nd thing is that online study is flexible because you do whenever you want there is no specific time.

Those students who is not able to understand their lecture after seeing one time they have the option to see those lecture again.

But on another side, there is also some worse impacts of digital education.

Firstly, due to online learning most of the students suffering from eye strain, headache because of blue rays emerging from the smartphones, laptops.

Due to online learning, there is no interaction is possible between teacher and students.

Students are not able to ask doubts about online learning.

On the other hand, traditional education provides a physical environment.

Through which student get helps in to improve their personality.

In the classroom, the student remains active due to a little fear of teacher and listen to their subjects properly but in digital learning student have no proper seating or always seems lethargic.

The most fierce problem is that in online learning a lot of notification in smartphones disturb the concentration of students and multiple functions of smartphones compel students for doing other activities than to learning.

Or also in a rural area at some extent. Most of the students do not afford smartphones and also faces network issues. Poverty is also a big problem which deprives the poor students to studies.

Thanks to all.

Using online system all education are going one a online phone laptop or digital mood, and students can interact with a digital way

Using this system also a lots of time are saving and students get more knowledge about the internet an thye will be also cover there concept using a seeing a video.

It will be more time saving.
Less effort more knowledge.

Demerits:
Online class that not much interactive as a offline class.
* Student not get thing properly.
* It will save time but getting things less.
* It will also pay a charges for a Internet.

In many villages they are not provide an internet connection so loss of some students.

Traditional education:

In a traditional education teacher student intract with each other property.

Teacher can pay attention to all students what thye do and what we do to enjoying with study.

Also, all activity they are take like physical education, economical knowledge it will most important to make a student honest and great.

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.

Advantages of Digital Education:

1. Flexibility.
2. Easily access on Mobile phone and computer.
3. Need not require a particular location.
4. Individuality.
5. It helps in higher qualifications.
6. It helps in Distance learning.
7. Opportunity for the jobholder.

Disadvantages of Digital Education.

1. One way interaction.
2. Not available to live the clearing doubts.
3. Problems in the internet.
4. Less creativity for students.
5. No competition.

Advantages of Traditional education:

1. Two-way communication.
2. Increase Discipline and Punctuality.
3. Increase morality.
4. Giving them lots of examples to learn from students.
5. Provide encouragement and motivation.
6. It helps in creativity and initiative.
7. Create a sound competition among students.
8. It helps in reducing fear, the nervousness of a student.

Disadvantages of Traditional education:

1. Require fixed time and the physical classroom.
2. Not good for jobholders.

So, we must make a perfect balance between Digital education and Traditional education.

I think both digital and traditional education have their own set of advantages and disadvantages. Digital education cannot take over traditional education and vice versa. It depends on the individual to choose which one over the other.

1. Social interaction:

I feel social interaction is almost nil in digital education. Social interaction includes interaction with teacher and peers. In digital education, despite having online portals for discussion, cannot outweigh the interaction being provided by traditional education.

2. Flexibility:
Digital education is more flexible than traditional education. Digital education is making life easier for people who work and study. They can study whenever they have time. Traditional education is not as flexible as digital education.

3. Budget:
Digital learning is cheaper as compared to traditional learning. Probably it is because traditional education is providing extra facilities which digital education cannot. For example library, etc.

4. Practical experience:
Traditional education gives us a provision to learn things with practical experience. Lab facility is present in traditional education. What we see in lab is just a small scale version of what we are going to deal with at work after the completion of course. This cannot be provided by digital education.

5. Discipline:
For people with discipline and self-motivation, digital or traditional learning doesn't make much difference. But for people who lack them, digital learning is not a very good option.

Hi, I am Rithik.

In my opinion, we all know digital education has a specific role in the education sector but the traditional education is the root of education both are necessary but they both have equally advantage and disadvantage.

First, we talk about advantage& disadvantage of digital education if you all know that the world facing COVID 19 the pandemic this pandemic effect on every sector because everything is closed by the government we face a loss of difficulty in our education we don't have the proper equipment for online education special in tribal and rural areas but we manage by video call education. I think our education minster must think about the digital education and try to improve the equipment in every area by disputing smartphone in school and college. It will happen that we will be ready for the future if another this kind of situation.

Now let's talk about advantage & disadvantage of traditional education- traditional education provide More knowledge they provide a solution by practically and students need discipline in life and only traditional education provide that traditional education provide teachers salaries expect to digital education because you can find everything on the internet I know that is better of knowledge.

In my point of view, both are good but I put traditional education on first and also we have to develop digital education for any impending danger like COVID-19 that's it thank you.

Hello everyone, so the topic is "Whether digital education has taken over traditional education".

So these two are the mode of education and both have their advantages and disadvantages.
Like if we see digital education it has some good sought of benefits like

1. It provides flexibility in learning.
2. No need to go to a physical location to help people who are not physically or have some disability issues or something.
3. Help us to align with the development.

And if we talk about offline education it also possesses some Rosy benefits like;

1. Better coordination by doing offline education a student can learn how to effectively co-ordinate with their classmates and teachers which leads to improvement in their speaking skills as well as listening skills.
2. Helps in learning nonverbal communication also like body language and facial expressions.
3. It provides a structured approach towards learning like in offline education students have to attend class regularly helps them to learn discipline.
4. I think offline education is more affordable if we compare it to online education because in online education students need some good devices, an internet connection and a peaceful place to study which many people may find hard to afford.

So, I think in my opinion it is very early to say that online education is taking over offline education because offline education is which have many good benefits over online learning.

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.

Good evening.

I think at some point of time we don't have to accept the new advance technology because our conventional and traditional things are far better then new technology. And education is one of that thing. In the past the Indian people are learn in seating the garden and in under the appropriate Guru or teacher. In that along with syllabus of subject the student able to know the discipline, punctuality and self confidence and many more small things like this. Which is essential for educated person in this things are can't be learn from digital education and also the digital education is a time flexible but in the traditional education the student can get the perfect visualization and perception and which is required for better knowledge. And also the labs and practiCal can't be online once you see the practical then you have to performed at least one time to get to know what is actually happened and what is not. And this practicals and the lab sessions are the small scale of our future work which we will doing in our jobs. So the good practical knowledge can be obtain by traditional education compare to digital education. At last, I want to say that at some thing the India has not to forget our conventional and traditional things. We have to stick the some conventional things of India which is required for better future of India. Thank you.

Hi everyone,

I am sharing my views about whether digital education has taken over traditional education.

All topics gives pros & cons,

If we are talking about the pros of this topic:

Digital education means doing online studies from the phone.

We are talking about covid pandemic scenario digital education was good for students and parents are also happy that at least their child doing studying online.

At that time all schools & colleges were closed, so all teachers gave online study to the student therefore all students have taken online study easily from their own house.

Digital education is very much essential to all students. Which is mentally good to students.

Sometimes digital education becomes harmful to students because students are taking phones from his parents. Then children play online games which is too bad for children.

Time save from digital education.

If we are talking about traditional education, traditional education means students go to school physically on daily basis. School gives many opportunities to their students, student can take participate & perform on the stage.

Interactive with teachers on daily basis about the study.

Students can represent themselves in school.

Students can learn several types of things like speak, activities, talk to unknown person & meet with friends.

Hello everyone, My name is Salahuddin.

The topic which we are discussing is very relevant.

"Digital education and traditional education".

We have seen a boom in digital education during the covid period. Like every topic digital education has merits and demerits. First of all, I would like to talk about the merits:

1. It was the only safe way to access academic classes for the students during covid times.

2. Earlier, a few famous entrance coaching institutes in India, were only in a few states and of limited seats. But now any willing students can access these coaching institutes classes online and thereby increasing education quality and competition in the country.

3. Even if we miss out on any class or session, recorded classes help students to access it later.

Demerits are:

1. Students can't experience the actual classroom atmosphere. Continuous exposure to computer screens not only creates eye strain but also creates mental issues like depression and loneliness. Students lack social skills without interacting with others as that in a classroom.

2. From a teacher's perspective, he /she can't have full control over the class. They can't manage the students as in an offline class. Students also may fake their attendance and not listen to the classes well and the teacher also may not notice this.
