When we practice visual learning, we get clarity of
the concept easily. During 9th standard when 90s students were
reading the chapter including functions of heart they referred only to an
image; teachers tried to explain that concept by referring to figure from the
only option then, the book. But at present, there are so many options available
where clarity through different mediums can be availed in the classrooms.
It is said that studious students can study from
anywhere they want; this could be opinionated or is a debatable issue. But what
everybody will agree upon is that with more tools and solutions available for
students, learning becomes easy as compared to students who do not have the
accessibility.
A Digital board is such a tool which is making
learning accessible in the classrooms by enhancing, engaging, and enlightening
students with the easy to adopt features.
