The Knowledge of MOOC Among Arts and Science College Students in Relation to Their Interest in Mobile Technology and Methods of Independent Study

Education is a fundamental aspect of personal and societal development, and it has evolved over the centuries. It is the process of transferring values, knowledge, and skills from one generation to the next through various institutions. Traditional educational models view learning as a sequential and enjoyable activity, with John Dewey stating that education is the reconstruction or refocusing of experience that increases one’s wisdom, skill, and power. Education is a lifelong process that does not end with formal schooling but also includes social agencies such as home, religion, newspapers, radio, library, movies, and television.The best education is one that prepares a young person to thrive in a dynamic and unpredictable environment. The goals of education have shifted from one culture or age to the next, but they have always focused on developing students’ minds and bodies. The effects of modernization on the educational system are summed up in the phrase 'modernisation.' The rapid expansion of human understanding has led to a need for modern education systems to keep up with the rapid expansion of human understanding.Educators should prioritize fostering students’ natural inclinations to learn and explore, as well as their ability to think critically and make sound judgments. To achieve national goals, education must be a 'powerful instrument of social, economic, and cultural transformation.' The population explosion, especially in emerging nations, is attempting to alter the established order of things, much like the information explosion in the industrialized world.In underdeveloped nations, the problem of illiteracy must take priority. More educators are needed to eradicate this issue, but it won’t be enough. Modern technology can help resolve many of these issues, not only increasing access to education but also enhancing the quality of education. The concepts of psychology have an impact on the design of educational methods, and technological advancements have had a profound impact on the educational system and its goals.Despite the excitement and confusion surrounding the current state of schooling, it is essential to recognize the importance of education in shaping a person’s character and fostering their full potential.
