Nowadays, the use of Internet with e-learning resources anytime and anywhere leads to interaction possibilities among teachers and students from different parts of the world. It is becoming increasingly pertinent that we exploit the Internet technologies to achieve the most benefits in the education.
This study compares the difference between traditional classroom and e-learning in the educational environment. Medical undergraduate students of our institution were enrolled to compare between the online versus traditional method of teaching through questionnaire.
Forty percent of students found the online lecture material difficult to understand. 42.6% of respondents found it difficult to clear the doubts in online teaching; 64.4% of the participants believed that they have learned more in a face-to-face learning.
In this study, we concluded that online mode offers flexibility on timing and delivery. Students can even download the content, notes, and assignment. Despite all the advantages offered, there is a general consensus that no technology can replace face-to-face teaching in real because in this, there will be visual as well as verbal discussion. Looking at the uncertainty of the current scenario, it is difficult to predict how long online classes will have to continue. Hence, it is of paramount importance that we assess the effectiveness of online classes and consequently take measures to ensure proper delivery of content to students, especially in a skilled field like medicine, so we concluded that face-to-face learning is of utmost importance in medical institutions.
如今，随时随地使用带有电子学习资源的互联网，使得来自世界不同地区的教师和学生之间有了互动的可能。利用互联网技术在教育中实现最大效益变得越来越重要。
本研究比较了传统课堂和电子学习在教育环境中的差异。我们机构的医学本科生通过问卷调查参与比较在线教学与传统教学方法。
40%的学生认为在线讲座材料难以理解。42.6%的受访者发现在线教学中难以消除疑问；64.4%的参与者认为他们在面对面学习中学到了更多。
在本研究中，我们得出结论，在线模式在时间安排和授课方面具有灵活性。学生甚至可以下载内容、笔记和作业。尽管有这些优势，但人们普遍认为，没有任何技术能够真正取代面对面教学，因为在面对面教学中会有视觉和口头讨论。鉴于当前情况的不确定性，很难预测在线课程还将持续多久。因此，评估在线课程的有效性并采取措施确保向学生正确传递内容至关重要，尤其是在医学这样的专业领域，所以我们得出结论，面对面学习在医疗机构中至关重要。
