Technology, and internet to be downright specific, has definitely shrunk the world in a singular dot. Interconnectivity and the boon that it brought are many, and some of them are thankfully being implemented to educate the masses and make learning easier, not to forget cheaper, for people the world over. It doesn’t end there, the impact is such that technology’s integration into the education system has drastically changed the way we process information. The recent announcement from Microsoft offering their Office suite to students at a highly discounted rate of Rs. 365, highlights how tech companies are keen on catering to the emerging youth of the future. Keeping that in mind, let’s have a look at how technology is helping change the education we receive, and how!
Distance Education
We are all equipped with a satisfyingly good internet connection wherever we go. Our homes are catered with broadband while our smartphones are running on 3G and 4G. This was definitely not the case half a decade back, and the new rise in internet connection has also brought about a rise in the trend of Distance Education or Distance Learning. Want to master in physics from the best university out there but don’t have enough dough? Fret not. If you are eligible and have what it takes, the educational institution will offer you their distance learning programme. This will enable you to have a one-on-one Skype class with the professor or a virtual class comprising of students from various parts of the world in a single massive video conference. It doesn’t just end there.
Musicians, artists and professionals from various other fields are being benefited with this. Musicians such as guitarists and violinists offer private tutoring and charge on an hourly basis. So, the next time you want to hone your skills into something highly specific but don’t have the time to travel across your city, resort to Distance Education. The perks are many; this isn’t restricted to teenagers, and ones with a daily 9-to-5 job can resort to this mean as well. It is light on the pocket as you don’t have to travel overseas to acquire the education and the timings are flexible and beneficial to both the parties.
