A New Education to a New World

My heading “A NEW EDUCATION TO A NEW WORLD “represents or means a new way of teaching, which is online education that has recently taken over because of the closing of education institute because of the covid-19 pandemic. As keeping in mind, the government has already given the orders of online education for the achievement of academic continuity. Most prestigious or very high–end private and public institutions have made the switch very easily by creating their own online teaching platforms or using many popular online platforms like ZOOM, GOOGLE TEAMS, and MICROSOFT TEAMS etc. While many other institutions that were not reliable or were not using the online platforms for their institution are now facing many problems.

This new world, in a pandemic period it has shown the importance of online education. It has made us understand the different realms of online working, so it is a time as we as a society should understand and adopt this new way of learning in our new world. Online education in INDIA has come a long way with the development of technology. With a population of more than 1.3 billion, the availability of highly developed technology like high-speed internet, high advanced smartphones. This development at an exponential rate attracts most of the population of the country. In recent times, everything has come up online people like to do everything online, shop online, do business online, make friends online, learn online, etc. By seeing this potential and immense popularity of digital technology. Our prime minister has decided to make our country digital. Since this new way of education has introduced to our new world, there is so much expected growth in the online education market like-

• It was previously worth $247 million in 2016, which is expected to grow about $1.96 billion by 2021. That is a compound annual growth rate of 52%.
• Nearly 48% population in INDIA between age group 15-40 age group with high aspiration but lower income is a good target market for online education, and the acceptability of online channel is high in the younger demographic.

These factors clearly show the involvement and future potential of line education in our new world, or I say in our new India.

In our new world of new education, it cannot be all positive or filled with full of advantages there are some disadvantages also which are created by people only like nowadays everything is online. Hence, students and younger age group of people have access to everything, so many of them can get distracted easily are very high for students they can easily lose track of their studies because, in online education, there is no reminder of their studies or assignment, so they take everything casually. There are many websites which give you access to everything like uncensored films, pics etc. which easily attracts your mind over there and I personally think that these things increase human needs which directly results in “RAPE” or something worse for me it is the main root cause of this problem in our society because there is no rule against it, no policy, no terms and condition, no law that maintains these websites or some type of channels that why most of the people are always engage in these type activities. Some people create online courses websites in the name of fake authorities just to gamble the money of the peoples. So there are many loopholes or disadvantages to our new way of education, which directly affects the implication of the different realms of online education. Hence, it is essential to make aware people of everything so they can’t judge anything easily and should not restrict themselves to be acquired by our new way of education and give importance in our new world.
