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.

I think during this lockdown so many teachers and student face problem in learning. Parents were worried about their child for not getting education due to COVID-19.

This digital platform for learning from home is good you can study wherever you want to do and it is good for teachers too. They can also teach students from their home.

But I think there are so many students who are not in full concn. While virtual learning.

While learning virtually there are so many notification going on in phone so it might disturb students. So many students suffering from headache, eye problems through light rays emerging from phone.

Specially, in rural areas student can't afford the smartphones, laptops for learning. Network problems are also there. So it is not good for their educational life.

And on the other hand, through traditional efucation students get their proper environment of stufies. They can ask their doubt to teachers and it is good for the students who are in rural areas.

So, Traditional education has taken over digital education cause it made so many lives better.

In my opinion, it is to say that digital education has taken over traditional education is no much meaningful.

We can say that digital education enhances the practical knowledge of traditional education, it makes more effective.

In modern times via digital education we get every knowledge via online search engine eg google, you tube video but also there is some contradiction in different videos from which we get some confusion there is a need of traditional education, apart from that digital education helpful for gaining more knowledge, doing some projects online.

So making digital education more effective we.

Should take help via traditional education whenever needed such as making interaction with tutors, seniors to transfer knowledge.

Apart from that, there is a need for tutors having good knowledge of technology tools which is helpful for the area where people are no much familiar with these tools and their benefits.

So we conclude that by the riding of traditional education we make digital education more effective in practical manners for general people.

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.

No, till date, the digital educational system hasn't taken over the traditional education system.

Traditional education system not only imparts knowledge to the students but also values, morals, personality development, soft skills etc, which are a major missing in online mode. Ergonomics of Classroom teaching is such as to facilitate proper sitting posture, visualisation, interactive study, doubt solving and mental relaxation which is a major drawback in digital mode of education.

That doesn't mean I am completely against the online mode. It plays a significant role in enhancing the skills as it doesn't limit the availability of teachers, courses, and have no constraints on their age. Students are even free to study according to their convenient time.

To conclude, I would say the current Digitalised education system is incapable of replacing the traditional method but no doubt it can be a great blessing to enhance their skills.

I would rather suggest a semi Digitalised offline education system incorporating the benefit of both the education system.

Thank you.

Hello everyone,

I am glad that we are discussing on the topic whether digital education has taken over traditional education. According to my point of view productive change must be there rather only change. Traditional education has its own advantages and disadvantages and same is with digital education. Traditional education makes 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. While disadvantages are it's not the smart way of learning things in the present rate of developing scenario, students are not inculcated with the practical knowledge. On the other hand, Digital education helps students to inculcate effective self-learning skills, minimizes the time to learn a single topic. For example Foreign countries prefer digital learning they don't read books all night before exams and vomit out the next day. Practical based knowledge is more important than bookish knowledge.

Thank you.

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 everyone.

Looking at the current scenario it is true to some extent that digital education has taken over traditional education.

Students learning from private schools and good financial condition have adapted to this change finely.

But in the case of government schools, these steps are not taken seriously because of the improper implementation and unavailability of digital devices.

Students having a poor financial condition and especially those who belong to the rural area are lacking these benefits which can deepen their beliefs on the dissimilarity between rich and poor.

There are lots of teachers who still prefer traditional education and they are opposed to this change.

This change is only possible when each and every student will be able to avail this mode of education which seems hard at the moment but it is the need of the 21st century.

To make this change happen government needs to invest more in the educational field so that students never get the thought that education is for rich and urban people.

Good morning everyone!

I completely disagree that with the statement that digital education has taken over traditional education.

In the present day, we can easily see the students going to school and coaching classes. These all are classroom bases studies which is our traditional education. This classroom bases study is our tradition which is continuing from old age. Which is described in our holy books.

Even at an early age parent are allowing the children for school education.

Although at the age of higher education they are matured enough to decide which one is better for them. They can opt whatever they want.

Till that time student are enough disciplined. And if someone is not disciplined till that time, he is not going to be disciplined in future.

So traditional education is at its own place.

And digital education is at its own place.

We have to select according to our understanding that which one is correct.

But it is not true that digital education has taken over traditional education.

Hello Everyone,

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 globe.

As the digital education is providing all the comfort to the students many of them are preferring digital Education. However, the environment that a student got in the traditional education system and the teachings that physically appearing teacher can provide cannot be provided in digital education. But according to today's scenario, most part of the traditional education has been acquired by digital education.

And according to me, in near digital education will take over traditional education completely.
