Why Digitisation Is Important For Tutorial Classes

Proctur | Tutorial centres across India are using digital tools and apps to create seamless systems to teach and conduct exams. These apps are also connecting teachers with students and guardians better.

When we talk of the advent of technology and various moves adopted to digitise India, we must include the education sector too. Various coaching centres and classes are making use of the virtual world to connect better with guardians and their wards. 

If you think going digital only means ease of studying from the comfort of home thanks to video-recorded lectures, think again. Coaching classes are now upping their game and bringing various facilities to their students through special apps. These niche apps, created by market leaders such as Proctur, help coaching centres manage database of students and assess their day-to-day performances.

The moment a student registers himself/herself, the app connects him/her to the coaching centre. The tutorial centre can then rely on the app to automate, manage and maintain the student’s database. Fee structures and schedules, examination dates and regular performance assessment of students can also be managed easily. 

These smart tools not only connect students to teachers, but also create seamless communication between teachers and parents. Guardians can now keep track of tests and grades, and communicate with teachers to understand how wards can perform better. Examinations, both online and offline, can be conducted easily as and when the teacher deems necessary. 

Benefits of going digital:

• The role of the teacher has become ever-evolving now, with them having to stay abreast of all modern technologies and information.
• It eases the burden of an already overstretched education system by bringing more students under its gamut. 
• Flexible lesson and test timings help students manage their studies better. They can even allocate time to pursue other interests and activities.
• These apps connect students to teachers beyond the conventional classroom hours. Help is at hand, whenever required.
• Students can access any past lecture or lesson any time, which is of immense help during board examinations.
• Digitisation helps create uniform content, yet enables teachers to address specific needs of every student and/or parent.

However, there are those who feel digitisation reduces human interaction, which has been an intrinsic part of every student-teacher relationship. One must remember that digitisation does not completely rule out interpersonal relationships. It, in fact, facilitates smooth interaction between teachers, students and parents, even beyond classrooms. One needs to remember that in order to reach out to the GenNext, one has to adopt dynamic methods that appeal to them. The modern education system requires teachers to be technology savvy. It also enables them to use it in an innovative manner to yield maximum result.
