E-learning in the world 

E-learning is an excellent form of supplementary education that can give you convenient access to information from all over the world. Natasha Malpani evaluates the benefits of e-learning.

The nature of the Internet and the people using it, has changed. New users view work, learning and entertainment in novel ways. They simultaneously process various forms of information from multiple sources and expect instant reactions and feedback. As a result, ‘learner-centred’ or ‘student-centred’ devices are fast springing up in the field of education. This type of tutoring allows the student to be in control of his/ her own learning. Here, learning is characterised by greater independence for the user, as well as a stronger emphasis on active, revolutionised learning.
