E-Learning can't be visible 🌹🌺

In my opinion, the learning process and teaching practice require both traditional and modern patterns and strategies to keep up with the dynamics of the times. Best Regant. Greetings.....

Covid-19 pandemic has accelerated more the application of e-learning, comparing to traditional learning. Synergy of both approach is necessary for success. But, face to face teaching/learning is approach which has many advantages over e-learning approach.

I agree with prof.Ljubomir Jacić.

I understand traditional and face-to-face teaching, and electronic teaching that takes place online. This being so, I believe that even traditional teaching is carried out online, because despite the use of new applications and platforms, at the bottom there is the same way of teaching but through a computer and even there are still identical ways of evaluating as traditional teaching.

Thank dr Wilmer Lopez for answering the question

E-learning processes will mature and perfect over time to adapt to our requirements and constraints. Let us not forget that traditional methods were not perfected in one day, they have taken decades to evolve to their present status.

Traditional classroom learning is compatible with eLearning. For those who still use only classroom instruction, making use of technology to enhance it is simply a win-win situation. By utilizing computing devices at each student's station, teachers can enhance the verbal instruction by also providing the information covered in a visual presentation.

The transformation from traditional classroom to e- learning means the change of learning environment. So the engagement in different learning environment has its own characteristics, which mainly behaves that students engagement in e-learning is more active

Blended learning is the future. Blended learning is the term given to the educational practice of combining digital learning tools with more traditional classroom face to face teaching. https://www.cae.net/how-to-introduce-blended-learning-to-a-traditional-classroom/

I agree with you Chinaza Godswill Awuchi . Nice contribution!

There was a time when my friends turned to me so that I "set the brains" of their children. It was not training (I didn’t do tutoring), but putting knowledge and skills in relative order. They believed that these relatively short-term activities gave their children a significant advantage to continue their studies. I held similar events with my students at the university. I think that this is exactly the place that classroom studies in a mixed education system should occupy.

You are right dear Vladimir Rotkin . Classroms are unavoidable in teaching/learning process.#chalk_and_talk

E-learning is supportive of traditional education, but it is not an alternative

Thank dr Vladimir Rotkin and Ljubomir Jacić for sharing useful information

Dear Colleagues. I would like to supplement the idea of Dr Yousif Yaqoob Yousif. If today e-learning is support for traditional education, then in the future this idea will be subject to inversion.

Thank dr Vladimir Rotkin for answering the question

I think yes.

Some kind of "blended learning", in the meaning of ongoing integration of new technology-supported practices, is already the new normal.

It has been like that for very long in education history - the integration of printed books for student's personal learning was also conflict-filled and posed against traditional learning in form of an older oral university culture.

So it goes on, also today, both "traditional learning" and "e-learning" are moving targets. What has happened in the last decades is that friction of information has been decreased a lot further through the use of Internet for communication and media storing /access. But I think we will find in the future that no real revolution had happened by 2020. It is still: listen, read, learn, test ...all in the set pace of the learner's cohort/group/class and set course time. If the learner needs more time, he or she fails.

However, what digital ICTs are uniquely good at, is information processing. Education has not come to that stage yet, but it is ongoing: learning analytics and adaptive learning is this kind of new ICTs which makes use of the digital's information-processing power. This will make another level of individualised learning possible but to the price of another kind of organisation of teaching and a redesign of peer learning (as students are allowed to learn at a different pace.

E-learning is circumstantial. Traditional learning is still the preferred method as a complementary addition to e-learning.

Thank dr Chung Tin Fah for sharing useful information

Very clearly, the teaching-learning process is in a stage of very rapid evolution, and for sure we will go through very many stages or iterations before some kind of stable system (read: universally acceptable method) becomes predominant. What is clear, however, is that one size will not fit all. Depending on availability of technological resources, one can expect to see a wide range of "mix & match" solutions, crafted to meet particular needs, and solve specific problems.

Dear Zeyad Mohammad this is a good discussion that we must take into consideration the experiences lived at the time of the pandemic, but above all in the researches carried out on the different teaching modalities. Considering also the contents, the educational level, the conditions of infrastructure, human resources and social contexts of inequality, I think that both forms will be necessary. But also give me a hybrid way as Blended learning could be a good option if we think about using the best characteristics of each modality in search of a better training experience. I don't think there should be one better than the other and not considering the possibilities. I think the context of the pandemic and isolation has given us an opportunity to reimagine education for all considering different situations and contexts. I agree with the contributions of colleagues Vivek Rajapadmanabhan , Vladimir Rotkin , Ljubomir Jacić , Chinaza Godswill Awuchi , Chung Tin Fah , Joan Nyika , Anders Norberg , Isam Alkhalifawi , Yousif Yaqoob Yousif , Yacine Lafifi , Ranjan Parekh , Wilmer Lopez , Mukhlif M.S. , Terri Purvis

Learning by definition in modern universities by definition is blended. It is hard to believe that the motivation for approach/emphasis will not be driven by finances rather than good practice. The current mantra is about prioritising the student experience. This of course in typical dictatorial means obey senior management notions of what is most likely to boost retention, progression and award. As for asking students that occurs only when questions are leading and the answers selectively fit the required response(s).

Nice contribution @Omar H. Abdalla. I fully agree with you.

Thank dr Vivek Rajapadmanabhan , Agnaldo Arroio , Antonio Fernández-Morales , Neil Dagnall , Omar H. Abdalla and Yacine Lafifi for answering the question

if managed properly, it will be used as a means to engage students in the process of t-learning.

Thanks for the question, Zeyad.

I have been involved in online learning since 2001. At that time, the college I worked with asked me to pilot online learning with another colleague.

My recent PhD investigated learning and the results in the literature review showed clearly that learning outcomes for students do not vary significantly between face to face and online learning. It also showed that educators often have a very different perspective from the learners with whom they work.

My own experience and research in these areas show me that poor face to face teaching does not support learning. In the same way, when we try to replicate face to face teaching in the online environment, it does not support learning.

We need to prioritise learning first, learning activities second, and technology as a way of creating/supporting learning. As Paul Ramsden suggested, our role as educators is to create opportunities for learning. We can do this in a variety of modes and ways.

E- learning is not a substitute for traditional education. It is just the need of the hour and being used as a stop gap arrangement. But, definitely, it will be a supportive process of traditional teaching process in future.

fluctuating between and traditional without justifiable reasons will create a lot of confusion in the mind of a child. In a confused state of mind, learning is difficult. Technologies are having great advantages and we availed it most during this pandemic. it is time to get back to our traditional way of education, which cares for everything which a learner requires.

Last spring the coronavirus pandemic pushed schools to quickly shut their doors and shift to online...

E-learning is "not just a passing fad," but likely to remain the new normal for a while, even as the pandemic wanes or ends, and further noted that the biggest challenges to e-learning for secondary and higher education are an inaccessibility to technology and academic dishonesty.

Online courses are either synchronous (conducted in the same manner as an in-class course, with set times) or asynchronous (self-paced). The latter offer students the opportunity of a flexible schedule, but may be more difficult for students to communicate with instructors. Exams are often essay-based with open notes, while some tests are virtually proctored by automated software to detect cheating...

Dear Zeyad Mohammad E-learning and E-teaching cannot be suitable substitutes for traditional practices. These may at best be called stop gap arrangements.

Thank dr Arbind K. Choudhary for answering the question

Considering, the adverse time of Covid-19, e-learning and video conference has been promptly influencing of our academic life. Face to face traditional teaching method is a well established system and compare to traditional learning e-learning is very new. My opinion, it is not the right time, to say these two systems are vice versa.

Thank dr Md. Abdur Razzak Choudhury for answering the question

I began in online education in 2001. Since then I have continued to work face to face, in blended learning, and online in the social sciences discipline as well as academic professional development. Much of the discussion reflected here were the same arguments back in 2001. Yet the research is clear. There is no significant difference between face to face and online in terms of learning outcomes.

I certainly appreciate the wariness that some of you have. I also appreciate the fact that for many educators, they have been thrust into this form of education due to covid. But let us not conflate the two issues.

Online education has been a successful way of not only meeting the learning needs of students in higher education; it has also expanded the reach of higher education due to the flexibility of online provision. This is particuarly the case for post-graduate students.

The challenges of online education remain access and suitability. Access requires reliable web access which is an issue for some populations. Suitability relates to some areas of study being more appropriately conducted with a blended learning approach rather than fully online. This involves a combination of face to face time as well as online learning. In a recent two day online workshop, the students were surprised and delighted with how practical the workshop was. This reflected research informed learning design rather than trying to emulate a face to face experience in the online environment.

Perhaps that is where we can best spend our time now as eduators - reading the research, finding innovative and successful ways of meeting the learning needs of our students, and recognising the value embedded in online learning regarding digital competencies that people in the 21st century need.

Traditional teaching is essential and e-learning complements it

Thank dr Ruaa SH Redeiny for answering the question

E learning is good. Supprtive way to. The. Traditional teaching

But. Can not. Be. Alternative one

We must not forget that in school case we are handling very young minds and they are not only learning the contents, they are learning the learning processes. Hence fluctuations will create confusions in their mind. We are able to deliver the content through the online and digital support, it will not educate the young minds

E-learning is the extension of the traditional approach. But, its feasibility may vary from country to country depending upon the kind of resource and skills of practitioners.

Thank dr Solomon Mengistie for answering the question

Communication is easy when all senses involve. So, face to face teaching learning is the most effective. E-learning is being used because communities are disturbed by Covid 19. Something is better than nothing.

Teaching in the Age of Covid-19

The Covid-19 pandemic is still far from over, and there is no doubt that educational sciences will analyse this sudden global shift of teaching and learning online for many years to come. Yet this collection makes a unique and important contribution to all future analyses, because it presents real-life testimonies of people’s struggles and feelings experienced at the very beginning of the first wave of the sudden shift online. These testimonies could have been collected only at that specific moment in time; all later analyses will inevitably depend on various forms of individual and collective memory such as Internet sources and personal recollections. This article is therefore a valuable historical document, which provides important insights into a crucial moment in the Covid-19 pandemic. Furthermore, the testimonies provide highly relevant and non-replicable inputs for researchers, policy-makers, governments, and everyone else interested in the present and future of global education...

E-learning should be promoted as a option for teaching and learning process for all the group of subjects. But it should not become compulsory as a substitute of real classroom.

Not appropriate but due to pandamic it is okay.

cant replace face to face teaching, but as a supportive and temporary method not bad

E-learning is quite a different way of teaching. I agree with Ljubomir Jacić that e-learning can be used only as a supportive tool.

If we speak about the change from e-learning to the traditional way of teaching of course it needs some additional attempts to do it. That's why the best way from my point of view from the beginning to use jointly e-learning and traditional learning, but it can be done only in normal life, not no....

Both are important, traditional learning is more interactive and live but e-learning has no boarder line, from any places by using the device we can learn.

Thank dr Md. Abdur Razzak Choudhury and Svetlana Tereshchenko for sharing useful answers

The fluctuation between e learning and traditional one may be difficult. Both are important and because of this pandemic it might be necessary to apply both system to avoid gathering of the students and prevent spreading of the infection.

A combination of traditional and e-learning teaching and learning methods is helpful and useful. That is known as blended education.

Thank dr Hassan Izzeddin Sarsak for answering the question

Hassan Izzeddin Sarsak has mentione blended learning. There are many models of blended learning.

Blended learning combines the best of two training environments—traditional face-to-face classroom training and high-tech eLearning. By covering all the bases, you can engage all types of learners—those who learn better in a structured environment that includes face-to-face interaction with an instructor, and independent types who learn better with semi-autonomous, computer-based training...

Not at all

Thank dr Atiqe Ur Rahman for answering the question

Because due to the SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) pandemic, the traditional formula of teaching in schools and universities has been changed to e-learning and there are already opposite situations in some schools, both schools and universities are improving their systems of smooth transition from the system traditional, stationary (implemented in the buildings of schools and universities) teaching for the didactic process carried out remotely online via the Internet, i.e. as part of e-learning. The form of remote education carried out in e-learning is usually conducted with the use of online videoconferencing platforms, which have many different useful tools and applications that enable conducting various remote classes, including presentations, quizzes, tests, exams, teaching materials available on the Internet, etc. As the SARS-CoV-2 (Covid-19) coronavirus pandemic is not over yet and new waves of the pandemic may appear, schools and universities are prepared for possible further changes in the teaching mode, i.e. from classroom to e-learning and vice versa. In addition, some schools and universities also use a hybrid mode in which only some classes of students at schools or certain types of classes at universities are conducted traditionally, on a stationary basis, and other classes, class groups, etc. participate in the education process remotely in the formula e-learning.
