Sociohistorical Context

The language of science has been extensively studied by linguists and rhetoricians – as a distinctive register, as a set of genres that students and academics need to master, and as a discourse of powerful social institutions. Most of these studies have been synchronic, focusing on the structures or styles of more or less contemporary texts, particularly research articles. But if we rely on such studies, we may tend to reify some features of text (such as the Introduction–Methods–Results–Discussion form, or the tendency to passive constructions and nominalizations) as inevitable features of scientific communication. We may also treat scientific institutions – such as the lines between disciplines, or between professionals and amateurs – as given by the subject matter, rather than seeing them as changing and as constituted in part by their communicative practices.

The content of the article provides information on the importance of studying and republishing education and training in higher education institutions in accordance with the requirements of modern digital time. This task in the modern digital world will be realized only through the development of advanced models based on the theory and practice of world didactics in the construction of effective design of training and improving the quality of education in universities. The author explains that today the main reason for the need to rethink pedagogy is the development of media education and the intensive introduction of digitaltechnologies in the theory and practice of didactics. We are talking about the possibility of online education and training raised by scientists at the level of world pedagogy, the need to focus on the implementation of all the skills of virtual education, the widespread use of digital technologies in practice. Based on the analysis, the author draws conclusions about the effectiveness and importance of interactive teaching and learning methods based on information technologies used in practice

E Learning

There are many terms used to describe learning that is delivered via the internet. E-learning or Electronic Learning is the portage of learning and training through digital resources like computers, tablets, laptops and, even cellular phones that are connected to the internet to access educational curriculum outside of a traditional classroom. This learning environment uses Information and Communication Technologies (ICT’s) as a platform for teaching and learning activities. As this teaching and learning pedagogy earns high momentum amidst teaching and student community, the researchers belonging to the respective communities undertook this study with the sole purpose of finding out the effect of e-learning apps in this high technology invaded the digital world with X-Generation learners. This study is descriptive and analytical. This research paper focuses on customer awareness, preference, and the level of satisfaction towards eLearning apps. The researcher has formulated core objectives relevant to the study and, both primary and secondary data are collected from the customers belonging to Madurai City. This study has well defined the number of e-Learning apps to fulfill the objectives of the study with the help of the statistical techniques. The researcher has used the IBM SPSS statistics tool for data analysis and interpretation. The study reveals the fact that despite the majority of the respondents supporting e-learning methodology but there are a handful of respondents who strongly believe that e-learning cannot replace face-to-face teaching and a tight bond between a teacher and a student.

The Internet Of Things

The suspension of institutions around the world in early 2020 due to the COVID-19 virus did not stop the learning process. E-learning concepts and digital technologies enable students to learn from a safe distance while continuing their educational pursuits. Currently, the Internet of Things (IoT) is one of the most rapidly increasing technologies in today’s digital world; and e-learning is one of the most powerful learning methods available. In today’s world, smart devices and new technologies assist teachers in concentrating on new models of student learning while avoiding time wastage. By examining the characteristics of the Internet of Things and the challenges that exist in the field of e-learning, the potential functions, benefits, and advancements of utilizing the Internet of Things in online education are identified and discussed. This article examines the existing and future condition of the Internet of Things world as it pertains to the topic of education and sophisticated capabilities available through the Internet of Things that enable the application of e-learning after an architecture has been designed. Students’ pulse rates, brain waves, and skin resistance are measured in real time by a collection of IoT sensors, including cameras, microphones, and wearable gadgets. By utilizing the proposed architecture, universities can change their distance learning tactics to maximize resources and boost efficiency without changing their overall academic activities. According to the study’s findings, e-learning has a favorable and statistically significant impact on students’ flexibility, learning experience, educational productivity, and overall quality of education.
