Technology has brought about new opportunities for development across fields. Online learning is one of the most important technological innovations in the field of education. It has revolutionised the scope of the process of learning. The increased convenience and enhanced efficiency of learning are the major positives brought about due to this. 

 

 

Just decades back students could only rely on their books and classrooms for information. Additional reading material was tough to get hold of. But today the internet and online learning have brought information to the fingertips of students. Children can watch lecture videos and access additional information via e-books or other files. The scope of learning has been widened as well. If a student shows greater proficiency in his syllabus then she has the option to access higher standard textbooks and video content online rather than just limit herself to the school syllabus. 

 

 

The ease of learning depends upon the frame of mind the student is. Conventional classrooms are at a disadvantage here as students are many-a-time in a non-attentive state of mind. But when it comes to online learning the students can choose when they want to study and pick which topic they want. 

 

Doubt clearance is more convenient with online learning. If a doubt pops up or if there is a lack of clarity regarding any topic while reading it at home the student does not have to wait until the next day to get it clarified with her teacher. Instead, she can readily use the online tools to clear her queries.

 

Online learning is a great boon for parents of young students and offers greater convenience to them as well. It can reduce the amount of time that they were previously forced to spend on their children's schoolwork. 

 

However, parents are advised to monitor their kids while letting them use online learning options. Care should be taken to avoid misuse. With a bit of guidance and caution, online learning can be effectively utilised to create a win-win situation for all stakeholders.
