Positive Effects Of E-Learning

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

Use of Social Media and its Impact on Academic Performance of Students: (college and university students, of bachelors and masters program were taken from this study to see the effect of social media on academic performance of students) ABSTRACT The study exposed that the use of social media sites had affected academic concert of the respondents unhelpfully and that there was direct association among the use of communal medium site and educational presentation. Questionnaires were used for collecting of data.

I strongly believe that online schooling will get better within time. It has a major impact on time and spending hard work onto a online course. It is important to realize that introverts feel at their most alive and their most switched-on and their most capable when they’re in quieter, more low-key environments. Having them feeling comfortable with their surroundings they often find the quieter settings of a virtual school to be more conducive to learning. So they can join more conversations online only because they feel safe at home online.

It was concluded that the use of gamified activities increased students’ commitment to do the required readings, changed their beliefs about the task value of gamification as an instructional tool in Dr. Ferdinand’s class, increased participation as in Romeo’s testimony, and the opportunity and determination to try multiple times without the fear of failing. However, some types of positive behavior rewarded in class such altruism or punctuality can be verified as a positive change of behavior. This could be researched in independent mixed -method study researching the effect of gamification before and after or in comparison groups. Authentic learning activities or products should be one of the benefits of the successful integration of gamification according to Kapp, Blair & Mesch (2014). They posited that authentic learning activities are the ones, which could be transferred and linked to real-life skills and scenarios.

The increase in accessibility is allowing more students to receive an education to fit their specific needs. The Pros and Cons of Internet Integration There are many benefits associated with integrating the internet in schools. Barbour and Reeves (2009), identifies some of them being the increase accessibility to an education, possibility of higher quality learning opportunities, improvement in student achievement, educational choice and administrative efficiency. In another study, Picciano and Seaman (2007), identifies some benefits being access to courses that are not available in school, meeting the needs of specific groups of students, options for Advanced Placement courses and flexibility in scheduling.

For instance, allowing students to learn from each other by initiating classroom discussion would help communication skills, and enabling students to choose their method of studying would help them achieve better understanding of material. This would open the door to greater things in the educational community. It would improve student/teacher relationships, allow students to study in a way that keeps them engaged, and it would increase achievement for students

Students with this personality trait are open to fresh experiences, feel comfortable seeking help and participate in peer learning in their academic endeavours. Openness is positively correlated with approaches to learning (Vermetten, Lodewijks, & Vermunt, 2001), learning motivation (Tempelaar, Gijselaers, van der Loeff, & Nijhuis, 2007), and critical thinking (Bidjerano & Dai, 2007). According to Moldasheva and Mahmood’s study (2014), students who are conscientious and open to new experiences employed extra learning strategies and these two personality traits are highly correlated to each other. That is, openness students may have high scores in cognitive and teaching

Some examples of pros are flexibility and the ability to concentrate. Online learning can provide students with greater flexibility in when and how they learn (Lips). This allows students and families to use their time more effectively to pursue other interests and activities. The flexibility of online learning can benefit students who have particular challenges in their education, such as those who have fallen behind in their studies (Lips). Students have reported that online courses are easier to concentrate in because they are not distracted by other students and classroom activity.

As online learning increases, the characteristic of being a more autonomous learner becomes a more desirable and helpful trait. This is due to the amount of freedom and control the learner experiences with regard to the place, time, materials, when, content , and especially the strategy to study (Cunningham & Billingsley, 2003). A part of what makes an autonomous learner successful is the influence of their self-regulation abilities. Several researchers have explored the connection between self-regulation and the academic performance in traditional face-to-face classrooms (e.g. Zimmerman, 1998; Kramarski & Gutman, 2006; Kramarski & Mizarachi, 2006). Barnard et al.

Adopting of extensive classes in leaning and using of cooperative among the learners leads for positive outcomes and it can promote the creative thinking and having more though and experiences while the process of learning. According to Robert , E , Richard , R , Nelson , S , (2012) , Peer relationship leading for promote lots of positive outcomes , and support to achieving different thinking strategies . In Oman Air experiences and uses related to Peer relationship as strategy intended for learning in workplace positive use of Peer relationship as strategy planned for learning can leads for having more facilities in learning and to learn more in short time. focus on Peer relationship as strategy planned for learning leads to help for relationship and to learn more about different functions , the group can leads for having sharing in feeling and more motivation to achieve success. Peer relationship as strategy planned for learning to achieve effective commutation and more skills in communication among the group.

Hi Tiffany, There are so many innovative ways we can use technology to better our experiences as educators. We can use technology to support diversity among many methods in which can be used. I love observing my students exploring with technology with many learning subjects. This experience helps them to become better communicators and problem solvers. Thank you Tiffany I wish you the best of your endeavors.
