Online Learning — Blessing or Curse?
According to the professionals from International Schools in Pune, The Definition of Education has changed a lot today. It’s no longer confined to the four walls of the classroom but has broken all the boundaries. The evolution of education is kind of a rebellion in the face of traditional education.
This evolution of education has mainly happened for two reasons- The surge of the Internet and booming technology Growth.
Schools in Pune say this technology and the rise of the Internet have led to what we call Online Education. Some people even call this phase of education the renaissance age of education.
Of course, every good thing has a bad part in it.
Online education comes with its own good and bad for us to decide. It then gets us to question which side is more lucrative and which isn’t.
Something that is new is more worthwhile or “Old is gold”.
But Guess what? We don't side on the lucrative side of a choice based on just morals and endless philosophical discussion.
Human beings are also animals who are often trenched up by something called circumstances.
Online Education is not flourishing just because it’s new and we should appreciate it.
It is blooming because it is the need of the hour.
Why should education remain accessible to only the middle-class “well-to-do’s” and 1% rich section of society?
The reasons why online education is a blessing instead of so many perks that a physical classroom provides.
Because somewhere traditional education has failed to address a lot of issues. And those are affordability, time, money, and space.
India as a Developed nation finds it difficult to even manage primary education for children.
It has to be cost-cutting to even manage a small thing like that.
Even in the next 25 years, there is not much change in the poverty index of the nation. I believe then at least we should have an educationally privileged society if not a wealthy or developed society.
The other issue other than poverty is time. Capitalism is growing and leads to talented individuals with no time to spare. Somebody who is doing a job to support herself/himself for survival has no choice but to work.
So even for such individuals online education is a blessing.
Of course, physical institutions have their significance. To enroll in an institute and receive knowledge and a degree. This type of importance won’t fade away.
Also, there are types of people who learn in Physical institutes and even do a Job.
Still, this may not always be a feasible option for everyone.
And we do not always meet supportive people either.
Hence Online Education has its own way of fulfilling current educational needs along with conventional schooling which has brought its own spark.
