positive impact

1. Enhanced Teaching and Learning:

= Technological developments like digital cameras ,projectors, mind training software, computers, Power point presentations, 3D visualization tools; all these have become great sources for teachers to help students grasp a concept easily.

= It has to be understood that visual explanation of concepts makes learning fun and enjoyable for students. They’re able to participate more in the classroom and even teachers get a chance to make their classes more interactive and interesting.

2. Globalization:

= When school in different parts of the state, students can “meet” their counterparts through video conferencing without leaving the classroom.

= Some sites, such as www.glovico.com are used to help students learn foreign languages online by pairing a group of students with a teacher from another country.

3. No Geographical Limitations:

= With the introduction of online degree programs there is hardly any need of being present physically in the classroom. Even several foreign universities have started online degree courses that student can join.

= Distance learning and online education have become very important part of the education system now a day.

Negative impact

1. Declining Writing Skills:

= Due to the excessive usage of online chatting and shortcuts, the writing skills of today’s young generation have declined quite tremendously.

=These days, children are relying more and more on digital communication that they have totally forgot about improving their writing skills.

= They don’t know the spelling of different words, how to use grammar properly or how to do cursive writing.

2. Increasing Incidents of Cheating:

= Technological developments like graphical calculators ,high tech watches, mini cameras and similar equipment have become great sources to cheat in exams.

= It is easier for students to write formulas and notes on graphing calculators, with least chances of being caught.
