MAIN BODY
1) NEGATIVCE EFFECTS OF E-LEARNING
Over the years the education sector has been revolutionized, with the introduction of so
many dynamics which has helped to bring the advancement of the education system. It is said
that need is the mother of invention, during Covid-19 schools were closed to prevent the
transmission of virus (Irawan, Dwisona and Lestari, 2020). Students faced difficult times with
smoothly carrying out the studies as schools were closed. Therefore, in order to carry out the
schooling, students had to shift to online mode of education. Every coin has two sides, good and
bad, likewise the online mode of education or e-learning has many negative and positive impacts
on the students. Let's discuss the negative impacts.
One of the crucial factors which negatively impacted the student was monetary aspect of
the e-learning. E-learning needs students to have laptop or computer and a proper internet
connection. It makes the e-learning expensive mode of education. In the pandemic inflation rate
and unemployment rate was at all time high which affected the purchasing power of the
individual. Many parents have a lot of medical bills to pay that it was difficult for them to buy
laptops and personal computer for the kids. Due to low purchasing power of the people affording
this high expense was difficult (Baytiyeh, 2018).
Lack of physical activities was another negative impact on the students. As kids
nowadays are already lazy and prefer to spend most of their time on social media and mobiles.
Schools used to make them indulge into physical activities including, getting ready, going to
school, cycling, etc. all these things are really unachievable in the home. Also, these physical
activities have positive health benefits for the kids in growing years, it makes them fit, well and
immune against many things. Therefore, e-learning has threatened the physical activities of the
students which directly impacts their physical health.
