 Digital Education-Adigital

Let us now shed some light on the various aspects of digital education.

1. 1. 1. What is exactly digital education? What effect does it have on our learning?
      In simple terms, if you understand digital education or online education, this is “Technology Enhanced Learning,” which means getting a better education with the help of technology. Today, there is almost no aspect of our lives that is not influenced by technology. If this technology is linked to education, even complex or difficult concepts will become easier to grasp. People of all ages now own smartphones as a result of India’s smartphone revolution, and we use them to stay connected to the Internet. This is a new technology that allows us to gain knowledge and information from anywhere in the world using a smartphone or smart device. This method of acquiring or acquiring knowledge is known as digital education.
      We’ve come a long way in the last 20 years in terms of technology; today, we have a mobile app for everything, and an app for everything. Learning on a digital platform becomes much easier if these applications are tailored to education. Before 2019, there were only one or two educational applications available, but by 2022, we have a lots of options. These applications are specifically designed for education or learning, and they make taking classes very simple or easy.

      We have a good understanding of digital learning, but we’d like to know how it differs from traditional or physical classroom learning.

2. 2. What is the distinction between traditional and digital learning?
   Let us examine its advantages over traditional learning.
   

   A. CONVINIENT

   For years, we have done the same things in the traditional or physical learning process, such as sitting in the classroom, listening to the teacher, taking notes, studying, giving exams, and promoted to the next class. In digital education, on the other hand, the class and content will be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and if you miss your online classes, you can access the recorded class videos from your recorded section. It is not necessary to be physically present anywhere.

   B. FLEXIBILITY

   In the traditional classroom or learning process, you must be present at a specific location or time and wear a specific uniform. On the other hand, with digital learning, you can attend classes from anywhere at any time. Online learning allows you to devote time to your hobbies, family, and friends. Many people who have health problems can easily attend online classes.

   C. ECONOMICAL

   Traditional learning methods require a significant investment of time and money, such as transportation, a backpack, stationery, and so on. On the other hand, a digital classroom saves money and time.

   D. LEARN NEW SKILLS

   A digital learning app can help you learn real-life and time management skills. Internet access provides opportunities to learn new technologies.

   E. ACTIVE LEARNING

   To stimulate reading interest, online learning employs a variety of techniques such as animations, graphics, and graphics. Visual learning, also known as pre-learning, is evidence that what is learned is retained in memory for an extended period of time.
