“Too often we give children answers to remember rather than problems to solve.”
– Roger Lewin
Gone are the days where students had to go through a lengthy process to learn a concept. They had to sit for hours, delve through various books, gather information, and then compile it all into notes. At times, they also had to take additional help from home tutors to find answers to their doubts. But today, home tuition looks a lot different, thanks to the rapid development of technology.
Studies show that with the help of online tutoring, students can gather more knowledge about different topics and clear their concepts. Thanks to this era of technology, one can opt for online classes to find all their required resources aggregated neatly into one place and study at their own convenience. That’s why use of technology is a smart choice to access endless amounts of knowledge and unlock the door to self-learning.
Here are six ways how technology can help you lead your own learning.
Technology provides you the possibility to learn at a pace you are comfortable with. With video lessons and an endless amount of information available on the internet, you can learn and relearn a topic at your pace and clear your concepts before moving into the next topic. This makes home tuitions a lot easier and comfortable.
Often when you are studying in a group, you might not always get individual attention from your tutor to clear all your doubts. This might force you to just mug up the concepts and cram during the exam time. Technology bridges that gap by providing personalized learning plans. It helps you to not just study at your pace, but also get personal feedback on time, to focus on your areas for improvement and added assignments to clear concepts.
Using technology means that you are no longer confined to a traditional classroom for studies. You can clear your doubts at any time and from anywhere, thus widening your learning environment. It encourages you to ask more questions and leave no room for doubts.
Gone are the days where you have to dig your head into a large encyclopedia to find answers to your questions. Today, the many digital tools available have made it easy to access endless amounts of information on any topic.
Imagine a situation where you are learning a topic on anatomy and you get to see and learn about the organs instead of reading words. Multimedia learning has made this possible where learning tools with interactive videos and animated lesson plans are created according to your requirements. Online tuition with real-life examples strengthens your fundamental concepts by providing you practical based learning.
When technology is integrated into your daily learning, it makes all your topics super interesting. This is because digital tools use unique methods to explain a topic – like pictorial representation, animated videos or fun infographics. BYJU’S The Learning App provides students with all this and more to make learning engaging and fun.
Technology has rooted its way into our everyday lifestyle, making education easily affordable and accessible to all. This has helped students on a daily basis, making their home tuitions fun and interesting. With apps like BYJU’S, students can learn concepts at a much faster pace with the use of animated videos and fun games.
