Abstract

The phrase “digital learning” refers to any type of learning that uses technology in its broadest sense. Hence, everything that involves digital platforms, tools, systems, and applications used by learners is considered to be part of digital learning. This suggests that using digital tools and gadgets in a traditional classroom while attending online classes, conducting internet research, watching online videos, or communicating in person with their instructor are all considered kinds of digital learning. It varies from online learning in that the latter only comprises learning via the internet. The former is a more general term that includes employing digital devices, software, and applications in addition to the Internet. For learning and communication during online learning, utilize the m.geetha@sru.edu.in internet. Online learning is thus an option when the teacher, students, and both are present in the same location.
