Let us have a look at the top 7 benefits of Interactive Learning:

Top Benefits of Interactive Learning in Educations

INTERACTIVE ENGAGEMENT

    Education in India for a long time has been passive. Interactive learning encourages active learning. Interactive learning enhances the learning experience and makes it interesting. The engagement and participation of the student are highly guaranteed with this.

    E-Learning suites generally come equipped with several interactive and 3-D quizzes that channel interest in the student at every level. The addition of VR to the E-learning method facilitates greater engagement as the students are intrigued not only by the knowledge that the module shares but also by the experience that they will have while learning.

    LIFE SKILLS

    At every stage of our schooling or even graduation, we have found ourselves dwelling oodles of thought on the question “When will I ever use this information?”. Although reductive, this has been a trendy statement since forever. It also indicates a trend that signifies the curriculum shifting its prime focus from life skills to just scoring marks. Interactive learning changes that.

    Teachers can now integrate real-life applications of the respective subject by various online supplements and tools. In fact, the most complex technicalities can be very easily explained in layman’s terms by using basic examples and paralleling the concept with day-to-day working. This phenomenon has been gaining a lot of gravitas in the higher education system worldwide.

    DIVERSE AND DISTINCT

    Teachers have always been limited by the restrictive resources and defined curriculum. That will no longer be an issue with Interactive learning.

    The availability of an entire spectrum of diverse and go-to features of the Interactive learning gadgets and aggregators will now help the teachers create a wide variety of lesson plans that cater to a plethora of learning styles and offer a wide expanse of contingencies depending on the level of student engagement. 

    GO GREEN

    Interactive classroom technology in education is extremely green by the nature of its innovation. It follows a dynamic and collaborative knowledge-sharing approach wherein there is absolutely no pen, paper, or printouts involved.

    This not only saves a lot from the already depleting green cover of nature but also cultivates adopting eco-friendly choices onto the students from a very young age. This consciously trains them in their actions toward the environment. 

    TIME OPTIMIZATION

    Interactive technology is less about long written notes and more about allowing students to gauge their practical and analytical knowledge. This requires students to do diagrammatic modeling, and online factual presentations and submit them. Interactive learning systems also feed this into the entire learning and teaching lifecycle.

    Students study online, make their assignments online, and submit them to their respective teachers through an online feedback system and the teachers can get back with comments about the respective changes. This also makes things a lot swift from the teacher’s end as well. The notes can be directly shared with the entire class through a common shared path and the evaluation can be done based on a predefined scoring scheme. All of these in-built functionalities help save a lot of time which can be put to better use.

    ONE TIME INVESTMENT

    Even though Interactive learning systems cost a little higher on the spectrum, the investment in these suites is one-time. Along with reduced costs, students also get experience with blended and on-premise learning. The use of E-textbooks ensures zero cost on the books and wastage.

    Most of the e-learning modules come equipped with the latest syllabus and study material guides for the students thus saving them a lot of time and money. As we emphasized earlier interactive learning methodology is a no-paper pen-based approach, hence the cost of piled-up stationery also gets excluded. It is a cost-effective and hassle-free learning method.

    WORKPLACE READY

    Due to Interactive learning, students are already preparing for their workplace. Technological mobility is the preface for the future. Students who are familiar with even basic online knowledge and fundamentals like creating PPTs, making models for representation, etc are more adapted to using hardcore technology in the future. The importance of digital learning goes notches beyond mere digital literacy and prepares an individual for a fast-paced tomorrow. It promotes workplace soft skills from a much younger age.

    The assignments that are given amidst the Interactive learning method promote and enhance a lot of critical thinking along with independent research and cross-platform proficiency, all of which are a great asset to the future workplace experience. This ensures their quicker and easier adaptability to the work environment.

    All – in – All

    Interactive learning is lately turning out to be a must-have aspect in the education sector. It is mainly needed for a country like ours which has seen eons of a monotonous and devoid learning culture.

    The interactive learning method may have its own share of bottlenecks and hurdles, but the benefits weigh a lot higher on the scales to ignore this educational sensation. We have already heard from several top-notch employers that Indian graduates need to hone their basic critical thinking skills. Technology in the education sector might be the next wave of change that will not only facilitate this but will also bring with itself a refreshing air of change in the entire dynamics of learning on the whole.
