Exam question for class Ten-2020
Subject: English
Time:
1hr
Marks:
40
Can you think of a classroom where there is no blackboard or
desk? Do you believe that you can be a student without a printed book or a
writing pad or even pen/pencil? Are you not thrilled to imagine that you have
asked a question and your tutor is answering it while flying in a Boeing from
Dubai to Dhaka? These are all possible in a ‘virtual campus’ in the system of
e-learning. No kidding! For quite a long time, educationists have been utilizing
the advantages of computer technology. The social networking services have a
huge potential to help educationists in this sector. They have access to
millions of people worldwide. Educationists have noticed that a large number of
social network users come from young generation who specially belong to student
community. So side by side with computer assisted teaching-learning software, online
education programmes are evolving fairly rapidly to assist conventional
education system. Is that e-learning?
We may confuse distant education or computer based- learning
or computer-assisted training or even online education programmes with
e-learning. But we should be cautious about the mix-up. What happens in an
online education programme? Maybe you get some materials online from your
tutor. Maybe you submit your assignment through e-mail. Or even you may take
your test online. But there must be some conventional campus, a
department/institute from where your certificate will come. But in e-learning,
as said by global e-learning guru Dr Badrul H Khan. Every step, such as,
registration, admission, classroom entry and exit, class work, attendance,
discussion with course mates, feedback, exams and finally certification must
take place electronically through computer and the internet technology in a
virtual campus. Everything is digitized and conducted by a system called
Learning Management System (LMS). So online education programmes blend various
components of e-learning.
The revolutionary concept of e-learning is already in its
practice phase in many parts of the world. Professor Khan has developed a
framework and important literatures on e-learning which have been practiced by
pundits worldwide including from Bangladesh. Professor Khan is especially
enthusiastic about the prospect of e-learning in Bangladesh. How would you feel
if Bangladesh contemplates establishing South Asia’s first virtual university?
Won’t it be a pioneering step for us in the world of e-learning? Let’s keep our
fingers crossed.
