▼ ▼ 2015 (1) ▼ ▼ September (1) BYOD Benefits for Engineering Students
Digital Learning is not just a technically advanced platform, it also brings the essential promise of learner independence. While it d oes place a huge responsibility on the leaner to be able to steer the course and pace of learning, yet it provides the much needed fle xibility and power of freedom as well. The all important ‘Device’ The concept of eLearning/digital learning has always been extremely device dependent. It could be a PC, laptop, Netbook, tablet PC or an iPad. The Digital Device is at the very core of eLearning be it a K12 program or a professional engineering eLearning m odule. The evolution of the BYOD concept BYOD, short for ‘Bring Your Own Device’, is a powerful fast evolving concept in digital learning. The concept essentially enhan ces the element of freedom in any digital learning scenario. Especially in the space of engineering or other technical genres of digital learning, BYOD brings in the essential level of decentrali zation in the learning system. Student-driven learning Modern day learning is an interactive process that involves effective twoway communication as well as participation. With BYOD, students become more proactive towards the learning and can add mor Convert html to pdf online with PDFmyURL
e value in the process. Encourages collaboration Apart from improving student participation, BYOD creates avenues for peer-topeer communication in the context of the learning. When learners bring heir own device, they receive greater opportunities to inter act virtually with the facilitators and collaborate with fellow students for assignments, projects and assessments. Personalized instruction and assessments While digital learning is pre-customized to cater to specific learning audiences, BYOD creates avenues for further individualbased finetuning of the instructional content. Learners can conveniently carry projects and assignments in their own device. Most importantly , the assessment process becomes more effective and efficient using the BYOD concept. Saves on institutional capital cost BYOD partially shifts the cost burden of implementing eLearning from the education provider to the learner. Due to this, the instit utional hesitation or bottleneck goes away paving way for an easier transition from traditional learning to digital learning ultimately providing benefit to the learners. Complements blended learning The concept works equally well for blended forms and instructorled learning systems. The faculty members can fully leverage the BYOD concept in the form of avenues for guided learning and o ne-to-one communication. Among the fastest growing providers of online education, Magic Marks offers digital learning solutions for students undergoing en gineering courses in Indian colleges and universities. Their video tutorials and materials can also be used by students studying for c ompetitive examinations. These are entirely visual training videos powered with 2D animations and an English voice over to help students learn and grasp concepts easily.
