Why engage with digital education?
Digital education provides many opportunities to engage learners, personalise learning experiences and widen access. It can make it easier for learners and educators to actively engage both with each other (e.g. through email, IM (instant messages), video
chat, online forums, social media etc.) and with learning materials.
- Accessibility: With the advent of digital education, students now have the freedom to choose their own study schedules and access information whenever and wherever they want. This could encourage lifelong learning and increase access.
Students with impairments may be able to access the material, for example, by using text-to-speech software or screen readers. The availability of education to “non-traditional” students, such as those who reside far from a university campus or
who have childcare or employment obligations, can also be improved through online and blended learning. - Personalisation: The ability to customize the learning materials and/or the technology settings is made possible by the availability of learning resources in digital formats. As a result, it is simpler for the student to access and
utilize the resources in a way that best supports their academic progress. - Flexibility: The flexibility to deliver learning content in several forms, modes, or languages and to engage synchronously and asynchronously with individuals around the world are only two examples of the affordances that digital
technologies frequently offer that are not available in traditional formats. - Authenticity: Digital proficiency is currently considered to be a crucial graduate trait because it is necessary for the modern global citizen to be able to interact with the digital world.
