'Future belongs to technology-enabled education' - Media for Freedom, Nepal
Education enhanced through the use of technology will bring the expertise of the best teachers to a large numbers of students in the years to come, G.L. Shekar, Special Officer, e-Learning Centre, Visveswaraya Technological University (VTU), Mysore, said here on Tuesday. "We cannot escape from technology, so the best thing is to adopt it like the mobile phone and the Internet. By doing so we are not replacing teachers, only supplementing them," he said, adding that there should be no distinction between "teachers" and "students", because both were learners. Mr. Shekar was inaugurating a three-week virtual training programme for teachers, on using multimedia and developing electronic content. The Consortium of Educational Communication (CEC), New Delhi, an inter-university centre of the University Grants Commission (UGC), organised the programme in coordination with PSG College of Arts and Science.
