Abstract

In the era of digital learning, when the mobile devices started gaining popularity, the Internet broke through the restriction on space and time and became a ubiquitous learning tool. The critical matters in the current information technology are the design of teaching activity in a way that is flexible which can be made interesting for the students. The challenge faced by most of the institutions is to provide online education to their students. This is because the institutions do not have the required set of digital capabilities. The lack of this digital strategy restricts few organizations to respond quickly to any customer query. It is preferred that in the competitive world, the institution should not only focus on digital learning but also try to bring about the innovative strategies with the help of which they can interact with the students. This would help in building an environment that is active, innovative, and challenging. Digital learning plays an important role in the skills landscape. This paper highlights the use of digital learning along with its impact on the society. The paper also showcases the existing systems that were used to impart the education and the limitations of it, which were then worked upon in the era of digital learning.
