E-learning vs books

This article was written within the framework of the project Quality in Education in the Vocational Training Sector funded by the EEA Financial Mechanism 2014-2021 No. EOG/19/K3/W/0010.

As you know, you learn all your life. Many people take this motto to heart and try to develop in different areas, often using the services of training companies. There are many ways to transfer knowledge- from those organized in a classic way, through online courses.
Fortunately, all these methods are constantly improved- in order to best satisfy course participants. E-learning, which is a computer-led teaching method, usually via the Internet, has saved the educational crisis in recent months- and thus stood at the forefront of teaching methods.

What are its pros and cons and how does it look compared to a traditional book?

• Availibility
  You can use e-learning and books anywhere in the world. However, the condition that must be met if you want to use such e-knowledge is access to a computer and the Internet. Although today few are surprised, but such an ultimatum puts the book in a better position.
• Sobriety
  Due to the great interest in e-learning recently, many companies have just gone in this direction. And while creating a graphically interesting program is not problematic, it is already substantive.
  Therefore, it is worth using the trial lesson option and pay attention not only to the pleasant interface, but whether the knowledge is reliably transferred.
• Self-discipline
  In both cases it is necessary. However, in the case of e-learning, which is often interactive and more interesting in terms of form, the issue of motivation can simply be easier than in the case of a book.
• Certificate
  E-learning is often an addition to an online course, whose completion can be confirmed by a certificate. Recently, such certificates are valuable on the labor market.
• Customizacion
  Books are, in a sense, universal- it's hard to create and publish a book that will be tailored specifically for you. What's more, the book and the knowledge it contains expires. Programs for creating e-learning content give you greater opportunity to modernize and tailor content for you.
• Progress monitoring
  E-learning is often designed so that you can monitor your progress in an interesting way- for example with quizzes. Using the book, progress can also be noticeable, but sometimes it's hard to look at it objectively.
  And whether or not we see such progress can have a significant impact on our motivation.
• Expenditure reduction
  Both e-learning and independent use of the educational book allows you to save money that we would spend on traveling to the training place.

There are many teaching opportunities offered by the market- we should be happy about that. Everyone can find something for themselves. Using e-learning seems to be much more convenient and interesting, often through interactive options. What's more, the latest trends show that e-learning dominated the market. Of course, every teaching method will find its supporters. The purpose of this post is to encourage everyone to learn comprehensively- we leave it to you to choose how to communicate it.
