E-LEARNING - A NEED TO CATER INDIAN HIGHER EDUCATION

Education

National Seminar On "Adroitness in e-Content Development for Higher Education"

There exists a paradox in eLearning among various institutes. Few institutions join the race, while the rest suffer from lack of knowledge or from lack of realization of the importance of eLearning. Institutes like IITs are adopting all latest technologies and are keeping their students enlightened from various parts of the world. ELearning has vast potential in India. To conclude modernization of education in Indian colleges and universities is a necessary attempt. The syllabuses, subjects and courses have to be planned in such a way that it satisfies the top international standards. To attract affordable international students, who are interested in comparatively quality education, eLearning has to be promoted. Infrastructures also have to be standardized so that it satisfies the basic needs of every student. On the technology support side we need adventurous faculty collaborators willing to share both their content expertise, and their experience as effective teachers and communicators. The knowledge resource from the best brains of various institutes, colleges and universities has to be used for bringing about a better society. In brief, global exploration into any branch of knowledge is possible only through technology enabled learning. “Open up the doors – to as many people as possible to gain access to it, at whatever moments in their lives, however frequently they choose to knock upon this or that education door.” When the world of knowledge is knocking the doors of Indian Higher Education, let us warmly welcome and accept. Where we can be the knowledge generator according to the needs of Indian students, why to just stay back and be the user of that knowledge.
