How to improve quality of education with the help of tech
While we often talk about the negative impact of tech in our lives, we don’t talk about how technology has made a big difference, especially when it comes to learning. Technology has helped improve education greatly for students, teachers and parents.
Tech helps to learn better
In the traditional way, a teacher presents study material to the students and expects everyone to engage with it in the same way. The class has to go through the lessons at the same pace. This presents a problem, as each student cannot learn the chapters at the same speed.
Online tools provide flexibility to students who want to learn at their own speed. Teachers can share the notes with the entire class through one platform, which will help the students to go through the chapters at the own pace. Teachers can also record entire lectures and share it with the class. This will give students the freedom to go back to any particular topic and listen to it all over again, till they don’t understand.
Tech helps parents stay connected
In the current scenario, parents have a very little insight on what’s happening in their child’s education, other than what their child tells them. The only little input they get is through the parents-teachers meet. With the introduction of technology, parents can stay more informed and involved in their child’s learning process.
Parents can track their child’s attendance from anywhere through the attendance app and as well as keep a track on their child’s progression, whenever they want to, without going to the college. Apart from attendance, parents can also get updates on their child’s grades and classroom behavior.
Tech helps teachers make learning better
Technology doesn’t only help students and parents, but teachers as well. Teachers can directly communicate with parents and pass on important information regarding their child. Teachers can also send important reminders to all students simultaneously.
Apart from helping with college activities, tech also allows teachers to pursue professional development from the comfort of their home. Even major Universities and degree Colleges, provide classes online and teachers can access those from anywhere in the world.
One such app that improves the quality of education with the help of tech is TeachUs – The College Intelligence App. It simplifies academic processes and provides real-time information about the College.
TeachUs benefits principals, teachers, students and parents with features like real time attendance update, class notices, lecture schedules, syllabus tracking, sharing or notes etc. TeachUs also helps the college administration in completing admission procedures efficiently by saving all the data on the cloud, which can be accessed by the college management from anywhere.
The use of technology has always divided the masses. Some people hate the use of technology in everyday life and some people love it. But, one thing is for sure, whether you love it or hate it, technology is a big part of our lives and will continue to hold its importance in the future.
