Online Education is a boon.
Many students in our country want to study but due to lack of infrastructural facilities like there is no school or college nearby to their home, so they are not able to study due to those reasons. Many people want to learn and earn a degree in some specific course but they are not able to do it as they can’t quit their full-time jobs. In such a scenario online education is the only option left with them to learn and grow in the desired field.
In many foreign countries, E-Learning is already very popular so that people can manage their personal, professional life along with their studies.
In online learning, people take virtual classes, chat with their classmates, and if they have doubt they can talk to their teachers as well or can send messages to their teachers at any time.
ADVANTAGES OF ONLINE EDUCATION
a. Learn from anywhere and at any time: People who have many duties to perform can manage their schedule that is at what time they are free to attend the lectures. Even if you have gone somewhere then also you can attend the lectures from that place.
b. Lectures Review: As it is very normal for a student to get distracted during their lectures they can watch that particular class later on as well as every lecture in online education is recorded.
c. Less intimidating: Many students are not comfortable while talking in front of the class, due to the hesitation they may not be able to ask questions., but online education asking questions or interacting with other students become easy.
d. More time to think and share: Generally in online education, there are forums or discussion boards where people can post their questions or answers. Also can share their opinion on different topics. While in offline education students have to think and share their answers immediately.
e. Cost– The cost of online courses is equal to or less than the traditional courses. Students can avoid unnecessary expenses like lab fees, hostel fees, travel costs, and many more expenses of the same nature.
f. Easy group tasks: Communicating for group tasks becomes easy in online education as students can connect via e-mails, video conferencing, or chat rooms. While in offline learning students have to decide the particular day and time to meet each other and if any person is not available then the plan has to be canceled.

Ofcourse the online classes during the pandamic condition was boon. Most of the people are not aware about the wast possible ways of the usage of internet. Many of them thought that internet and its usage are lead the young generation to a worst life. But during this period they proved that we can do most of the activities with the help of internet. We knew that india already faced many environmental problems including flood. At that time the students were not able to attend the classes. It leads the teachers and students to attend more special classes before the exam time. But right now we use internet as a medium to attend the classes.
This helps them to attend the classes everywhere. Most of the faculties provide recorded classes, that helps the students to remarks their doubt and solve it carefully. If anyone lost a class, then the recording helps to attend it later. So no one loss any class or any topics.
Only after this pandamic situation we think about this source. But before that most of the foreign countries uses E-learning as the part of their education.
But this e-learning platform may not be found good always. Because it decreases the bonding between students and teachers. They only seen using a medium. So it leads to a barrier between students and the society. And also over usage of internet leads weakness of eyes and leads to bad health condition. Because they don’t have much physical activity and efficiency.
