I would say that traditional education has better than digital education to some extent,

The majority of students do not tend to concentrate on online classes regularly. In digital education, soft skills will not develop as there is no interaction with teachers and friends. Digital education is a bit difficult in rural places.

Hello everyone,

I would say that traditional education has better than digital education in some extent, if you consider a guy from rural areas their education is not good as much in urban area so here digital make a good impact to compete rural people as well with urban people in a row, those who have good education facilities near by them then traditional education is far better than digital. We think that digital education has taken over traditional education due to this corona period when things will become normal people will definitely choose traditional education.

Yes, some things can be learned digitally but for school/college curriculum. I would pick traditional education over digital. Since in traditional education, there is face-to-face interaction among teacher-student and among peers. Also, if the college curriculum is taken online and exams get canceled, students tend to take the subjects lightly which might become a problem for them.

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.

I would say digital education is good because whenever we want to learn something at any time so we can directly go to the online education platforms and learn those things very easily and efficiently.

DE is more understandable than traditional education due to its visualization technique the understanding level is high and we can see in pandemic the whole thing are closed and in that situation, the Digital platforms are very excellent for learning purposes.

I would like to vote that Traditional education is better because it helps students in many aspects like going outside and interact with folks face to face rather than online through digital media. By going outside students become bold and open to communicate more effectively.

Hello everyone myself Vaishnavi.

According to me, digital education is better than traditional education because they can understand the topics very easily so they can remember the concepts for a longer period and that is the smarter way to learn the proper knowledge.

Students are more interactive in animations so they are interested in knowing the knowledge with self-interest.

They get motivated by the technology so they try to implement their ideas in which fields they have more interested.

They listen to the teachers full of concentrate and no more distractions have happened when they are reading.

So, finally, I want to conclude digital education makes the students in a smart way and that is the best platform for developing their skills.

Can we compare landline phones to today's smartphones?

The technology used in both the devices must surely be different but the work is the same, to make a call. It's an advantage of smartphones that nowadays we can do almost everything on our figure tips.

Same like that as time passes, we have to adapt to the changes around us. We have been friendly with technology in today's world of AI.

This also holds true for Traditional education. We have to be digital because time and technology are growing rapidly so we also have to be smarter than these Machines.

Yes, it is also true that we can't completely depend on digital sources for education. Like people to people understanding, students and teachers attachment, level of satisfaction in traditional education, extracurricular activities, attachment with the peers.

Etc. These are the things that we can't archive digitally. But for these, we can work with technology to improve it in the future.

Think about adult education via the traditional system. Most people feel shy to talk about it but in the digital system they can present their doubts & views more efficiently.

It's also true that preferring digital education over traditional education can widen some gaps between our societies but it can be eradicated through providing quality education in government schools. The most important concern about digital education is that students feel seclusion in it. This can lead him to an increase in the level of anxiety, stress, depression, and lack of temperament. Eyeglasses from the very beginning to kids is Common today. So we have to develop a holistic approach to tackle these problems.

So, all in all, it depends upon person to person what is their mentality. Some students & teachers feel comfortable with the traditional & some are with digital. We can't ignore completely each one of them. Like our mixed culture.

The society we have to come up with a mixture approach for the advancement of education.

Hello everyone.

Digital education has taken over traditional education. As the term suggest, digital education is education through some sort of digital media like presentation, video tutorials, etc. While presentation and video tutorials are meant for educating the individual, online tests and quizzes are used to the test the understanding of the individual. With the advent of technologies in the recent years, this form of education has taken adopted by many worldwide in order.

Traditional form of education is one in which there is a teacher centered system where one teacher caters to the spreading of knowledge to an entire classroom of students. Here the teacher is able to clarify the doubts that they have instantaneously. A teacher also to clarify the doubts of a student, I believe that even in the case of digital education the clarification of type doubts of a student is also possible, though not always instantaneously. We have seen in corporation of many comment boxes or messaging tools incorporated with many of the e-learning sites which allows a student to post comments or doubts and in due time get replies from the faculty who is teaching the course. This type of method will also foster discussion among the different people who are taking the course because any of them can reply to the comment.

Hello everyone.

Myself Shristi.

As the whole world went through the pandemic, many aspects of the economy got badly affected. One of the severely affected areas is education. So most of the schools and colleges opted for digital education. What I think is, yes, digital education is an effective means of providing education when not all the students can come to physical classes, but at the same time it may not be as effective as traditional education since many students are not used to it. On the other hand, digital education did not let students stay idle during the lockdown. It can be a good idea to introduce digital education but that has to be carried out simultaneously with traditional education. And of course, the availability of technology is both a challenge and an opportunity for digital education.
