Are digital learning platforms enough for a student to learn? Here's what experts say
Gone are the days when learning was confined to well defined physical spaces, often referred to as classrooms. While this concept of digital learning has been a norm in the West, India, though a step behind, has significantly caught up and today, we have digital platforms which help kids learn through cartoons to platforms helping students and professionals ace their academic goals. But the questions still remain - are these digital learning platforms enough for a student to learn? But even with all these factors in favour of a digital learning platform, we still have decision makers who are hesitant in choosing a convenient way over the conventional method of learning. This crisis, in a way, has come as a silver lining for institutes to take notice of the importance of digital learning and for them to finally understand that such platforms can never substitute the conventional method of learning but act as a perfect fall back on option when things take a drastic turn such as the crisis we are facing.
