E-learning: A Boon or a Curse

Abstract

As we know that, in today’s time internet is very useful in office works, as well as for a student’s studies. E-learning is the platform where students can easily study online without any help from books, etc. By taking help of the internet, students can easily study from everywhere like in buses, metros, etc. Some platforms related to e-learning are: YouTube, BYJU’S, Vedantu, Extra marks, etc. The main advantage of e-learning is that students can schedule their study timings as per their own needs. It saves energy, time, and money to gain knowledge. It helped every student in the COVID period in studies too because in the pandemic no one was able to go outside and study. As from elearning, students are free from the rules and boundaries of a proper environment of classrooms, it is very obvious that students will not maintain the rules of classes. They might not take classes regularly or not study the materials provided by their teachers. Students might bluff their parents and instead of studying they can watch videos that are not good for their mindset. It only depends on the students in which way they will take it, they might gain knowledge or rather will distract from the studies.
