The Booming Trend of Digital Learning in India

Abstract

Nowadays our life is governed a lot by  “trends”. Trends are patterns that bringa change in  one or more segments of the population. Trends are  there for a short period, they come and go. Megatrends  are the trends that impact the whole population and  stay forever. The biggest example of a megatrend is  the print revolution and technology.

Technology has impacted every domain. One such  domain is education. The coming up of technology in  the education sector gave birth to digital learning. Now  the old traditional classroom system has completely  been changed to a modern one. Blackboards have been  replaced with smartboards. Now teaching is no longer  restricted to textbooks rather teachers to make teaching  more interesting have started to use presentations.  Students no longer have to write notes, they can  simply get PDFs of the notes from their teachers on  smartphones. Learning is now not restricted to just  classrooms. At the time of the pandemic covid-19,  digital learning played a vital role. Students were  able to take their classes in online mode with the help  of various applications like Google Meet, Zoom, etc.  The main purpose of this research article is to analyze  digital learning as a concept. The article will help  in understanding the pros and cons associated with  digital learning.
