ABSTRACT
Due to the enhancement of knowledge and technological expertise in society, our country needs learning skills that can help in keeping pace with the development of science and technology.
The educational system of a country, and as a result, education itself, can never be separated from social institutions, national and international interactions at a global level. Education, in the present scenario, is the soul of all changes and developments. The use of information technology in education must be well-planned, systematic, and under thorough supervision. Only knowing ‘how’ to use information technology is not enough. The knowledge of ‘why’ information technology is required, as well as the extent and limit of its usage, must be properly understood by all. People need to be educated about all aspects of information technology; otherwise, the infrastructure built for it would be a complete waste.
Educationists must keep in mind that the use of information technology in education should make the teaching-learning process more effective and fruitful, rather than making it too easy for students. Technology should assist in acquiring new skills but should not compromise essential qualities like hard work, patience, and perseverance.
In the last few decades, especially since the COVID-19 lockdown period, the education system has undergone drastic transformations. Many changes have occurred in teaching methods, delivering lectures, explaining lessons, and discussing study materials. On the other hand, these changes have significantly impacted the mindset and personalities of students.
This paper discusses the role of information technology in education through e-learning and presents a discussion on students’ attitudes toward e-learning.
