I am amazed to see how technology has transformed the education system worldwide. Children have so much of Assistive Technologies to understand the concept these days other than books. I am so happy to see children having a very clear concept these days. Even teachers use different types of learning methods to teach children. No wonder today’s generation children are very confident. Even I see children taking help from YouTube. This is something incredible. I always see school-going children quickly go on to YouTube to see how concave and convex mirror function, or what is the law of thermodynamics. I remember during my school days in the late 90s, I would spend hours and hours in the library to find out the best books available to understand any concept, but it has changed now.
A child need not worry about anything and he can go on to YouTube to learn anything. Even lots of free and paid apps are available where children can interact with teachers by sitting in their drawing room. This is time-saving also. Therefore, I have noticed a culture of personal tuition has started waning these days. This is indeed a great change technology has brought in our life and education has become hassle-free and interesting.
