E-Education in Modern Era

Abstract

Digital learning in developed countries provides the learners with an interactive mode in a successful way, but in the case of developing countries such as India access to computer is limited to a few elite urban areas. Erratic power interruption, unaffordable investment cost for a normal citizen and obsolete software are some of the bottlenecks preventing for popularization of the eEducation. Although India tops the global list of software experts including teaching, their expertise could not be optimally utilized for the spread of eEducation due to the above-mentioned shortcomings. eEducation is about bringing education to people instead of taking people to education. It includes delivery of subject courses and training via electronic media. This paper addresses the important aspects and merits of eEducation through distance mode at an affordable cost for developing countries such as India.
