I feel that both types of education systems have their own pros and cons.

Traditional education is somewhat better in the sense that it inculcates a feeling of healthy competition amongst the students, they can instantly get their doubts cleared, also it not only teaches the textbook knowledge but also gives a platform to students for learning other aspects of life while cooperating with fellow students. This aspect is missing in digital education.

Moreover, in traditional education, the grasping is always better than that from the digital one as it leads to active learning.

While digital education also has benefits. For instance, it penetrates more into the remote areas easily, one can easily access almost anything sitting in their beds for almost free of cost, many alternatives for one single topic so one can choose the best out of them and many more.

But for the younger kids, digital education should not be preferred as they will become lazy and eventually get saturated with studies.

So, we can say that both types run parallel to each other, benefitting different people differently.

Thanks.

Hello everyone greeting!

I think that we can't equate digital education and traditional education because both has different basis.

Traditional education is our old system to give knowledge to people while digital education is a modern techniques to give the knowledge.

Both have their own benefits and losses.

In traditional education, one have go to the college to get the knowledge but in digital it is not so you can learn anywhere and anytime.

For small class student, they require traditional education but when they grow, mature they can learn digitally although a small guy can be teached digitally by using some videos pictures on a digital screen, so at that time digital education can be used as supplement for traditional education so it is impossible to teach everyone digitally some time they need traditional education because digital education never teach us molarity, practical skills, behaviour etc.

But on the other hand, digital education provides us lot of comfortable and make the education more competitive. Today's time everything is digital so if anyone not able to buy they can download it and read it in their gadget's if only they have internet, they can excess videos audio and mnay thing of visulaization that makes the thing very clear to people so we can say digital education good for a mature mens. If you don't know what is right what is wrong then how can you learn the good thing so to decide this you will have go to traditional education.

Both the education have some drawback.

In digital education you can't clear your doubt at instant while in traditional education we can interact, talk to our educator d clear their doubts and in this way a good communication. Is developed and fear of speaking is also removed.

Traditional education make people punctual for their jobs.

So we can say both the education are supplement to each other and both have their own importance answer unimportance.

We can compare it in anyway.

Digital education is not limited to video lectures, it is a vast package of online tests, Online Communities, Live feedback etc. With online tests, you are not comparing yourself with 30 students of your classroom but a competition with thousands of students from across the world and you can revise any topic at ant time as you Have access to video lectures.

Well, according to my opinion, the statement made has mislead the relation between digital education and traditional education. It can be more nicely said that digital education has empowered the traditional education system.

If alone they are taken then they would fail to fulfil as much they can do together.

In Digital mode, it is easy to access any lecture, tutorials, etc. Any time at any place. It can be watched by reversing many times in the same manner but this criteria is also a problem in it. If one is unable to get in one way then its not possible for the person to understand it despite being watched many times because it will repeat the same. For doubts to get clear through this mode it will take time. May be sometimes it will be uncleared.

But in the traditional system, one can clear his/her doubts by the teacher at the same spot where it arises. But in this mode also there are certain limitations in teachers knowledge and their way to explain the things.

So the traditional education system can utilise the digital system to explain the facts more clearly through animations, ppt, 3d view, more cleared microstructures, etc.

In my point of view, Traditional education is mainly used for getting a degree or certification. It won't improve our skills like they will complete the syllabus and it won't improve our knowledge.

In Digital education, skills and knowledge will be improved knowing practically it will provide a good environment for students after working in the industry it is more helpful to build a career.

According to me, both traditional and digital education is good we can't compare it.

If I talk about the traditional education system as we see many students go to school n they all follow the classroom basis studies which is our education try traditional is continuing from the old age.

N digital education has its own place.

We select one according to our understanding need which is correct.

With the help of traditional education, we can interact with the other student which teach you conversation and communication n disciple but in traditional education, it doesn't teach you this.

I think it depends upon the student what they want to choose or comfortable in which.

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.

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.

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.

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.
