I. INTRODUCTION
The present period we live today is termed as digital era and is characterized by technology which increases the speed and breadth of knowledge turnover within the economy and Society. The economic impact of the digital revolution has been tremendous and it has radically changed the way individuals and institutions interact in Business, Education and other Sectors. In Current generation, people are born as digital natives and they are exposed to networked digital technologies and the skills to use those technologies. There is greater interconnectedness, easier and faster communication and unlimited exposure to Information and Knowledge. Universities are urged to act by making strategic investments in technical infrastructure

However e-learning is not a panacea [20]. There are inherent problems that need to be addressed like lack of face-to-face interaction of faculty and students and the responsibility of learning now shifted to the learners. Also the faculty’s role changed to content providers and facilitator of learning. The students, faculties and educators should equip themselves to adapt to new roles to harness the benefits of using Technology in education. Many research studies highlight the inadequacies in e-learning systems resulting in disengagement of students from the learning process [1]. The researchers are skeptical about the self directed abilities of learners and report that research gap exists towards finding solutions to these problems [11]. This paper introduces a self regulating e-learning framework that provides solutions to the problems discussed. It is based on a Continuous Improvement Model as proposed by Deming who was instrumental for introducing TQM, a quality management concept in USA and Japan in the post war world. The Model facilitates faculties to design and deploy their course content in an e-learning website. Provisions are given to collect and analyze feedbacks …show more content…
We use the web analytic tool "Google Analytics" which is available free. Google analytics presents various types of visual reports on user behavior like Sessions, Page Views, Duration of session etc. A number of useful and interesting patterns on Learner behavior and needs can be arrived at by analyzing different kinds of reports. Web Analytics finds wide applications in E-Commerce Sites for understanding customer behavior and needs. Now the same is extended to e-learning sites for understanding leaner behavior and needs
As earlier stated, over the years people have become intact with technology thus society adapted to technology in their lives, making their lives easier. “Our use of the Net will only grow, and its impact on us will only strengthen, as it becomes even more present in our lives.” (92) The
I spend my observation hours in the training room this week. While in the training room, I learned a lot more about the e stem machine. I learned that e-stem is mainly used to reduce pain as opposed to actually healing the injured body part. The e-stem can also be used to help people recover from surgery. It is crazy thinking about all the resources we have now to help people return from injuries.
The internet has been, arguably, the most influential form of technology to be introduced in the past hundred years. With this creation, the world as we know it has been connected in ways that were never dreamed of before. Peoples from thousands of miles away are able to converse and spread their ideas with a simple push of a button. Cultures have interacted like never before. This, in return, has caused a new information age that has enlightened the world as we start the 21st century.

i. The School and College Administration should be bound to Revise practices, policies, and regulations to ensure complete privacy and information protection while enabling a model of assessment that includes ongoing gathering and sharing of data for continuous improvement of learning and teaching. ii. The School and College Administration should design, develop, and implement learning dashboards, response systems, and communication pathways that give students, educators, families, and other stakeholders timely and actionable feedback about student learning to improve achievement and instructional practices. iii. The School and College Administration Should Create and validate an integrated system for designing and implementing valid, reliable, and cost-effective
The educational industry is comprised of elementary, secondary, postsecondary and training institutions. Each one of these sectors have their own level of competition, as well as social and economic impact that determines it current positioning. All postsecondary institutions (also referred, as higher educational institutions) seem to offer the same type of services, with the same set up fundamentals. Thus, it makes it a little challenging to estimate the universities’ current positioning as a company. Yet, this challenge has allowed higher educational institutions to continually update and improve their programs and academic structure.
For example, in 1900 the University of Texas wanted to find oil on their property. Once they found and profited off of it, they began building more colleges. These new schools provided more
Friedman a well-known New York Times reporter/journalist would say that technology compliments education for the future. In his article “Come to Revolution”, Friedman argues that online education is potentially better than regular education. He uses many effective rhetorical strategies to make his point. Friedman does a good job of providing background and referring to reliable authorities to enhance his own credibility. In his argument he uses the people he interviews’ credentials.
Time management, lack of discipline, less direct contact, and less accountability and feedback from peers and educators are all ways that show that virtual schooling is not the best choice of education. Traditional education makes sure that students are able to learn from structured schooling. Although virtual schooling may have advantages, it does not always help students get the results they want. Online learning programs typically serve students of all ages and learning backgrounds.
Multiple countries throughout the world have internet access at their fingertips and are able to find the answer to their questions instantly. “As of June 2017, 51% of the world’s population has internet access. In 2015, the International Telecommunication Union estimated about 3.2 billion people, or almost half of the world’s population, would be online by the end of the year” (Gordon). Billions of people use the Internet each and every day to research topics, check their social media, and communicate. The nation as a whole has become extremely dependent on technology to do their work and survive through the day.
Internet is developing day to day. Internet and networks are binding us in new ways. As Rheingold argues, “There is a huge social issue at work in digital literacy, one that goes beyond personal authority. Every intercourse creates new association in a child’s brain, every email, tweet, search, or post is contributing and nourishing connections in our global brain, changing the shape of the Internet that we billions of people are progressing together. Young child brain or an internet brain both are always trying to make connections.
Integrating technology in education can be extremely beneficial. It can be a useful method for the students and their teachers, which improves both their skills. In addition, being active on the Internet when learning can make students and teachers’ academic journey easier. There is a lot of evidence that proves how useful technology is for both students and their instructors. This paper attempts to show that using the Internet allows
Thus learners could feel confident on the maximum reliability of the substance of lessons received. Furthermore, presentation involving a variety of forms - because computers that could support learning and teaching with lettering Imaging, video and sound -could be more interesting. • Encouraging interaction with other e-learners and an e-instructor: Chat rooms, discussion boards, instant messaging and e-mail all offer effective interaction for e -learners, and do a good job of taking the place of classroom discussion.
1-Introduction Today, technology has developed a lot and invaded every field of our life. One of the fields affected by this progress in technology is education. Now online learning is one of the aims that is achieved in education sectors all over the world. This is a way of learning by which learning is done through the internet. There is no need for students to go to school or university in order to learn something new.
Today 's society is a network society. It is a product of the digital revolution and certain sociocultural changes, that occurred within these last twenty years. It is a society build around personal and organizational networks; that are based on digital communication by the use of the internet. Networks are international and know no frontiers. Furthermore, this brought forward new ways of communication, where people from every corner of the world are interconnected and make them reachable in every instant; thus, making the network society a global one.
