Are Learning Apps Helping Or Hurting Education For Children?
Our formative years build the basis on which our success in life will be determined. These formative years also provide us with basic life skills such as reading, writing, calculating, and communicating effectively. Every parent needs to ensure that their child gets the best education possible during this period to ensure that they succeed in life.

However, with the world turning to tech for almost everything and tablets, smartphones, and digital learning aids on the rise for children as young as 5, should parents be concerned about enhanced screen time and its impact on learning? Let’s find out.

Learning methodologies in children

Children learn in many different ways. These learnings are visual, auditory, or sensory. Children also learn at their own pace, regardless of the pace their class is going at. Digital devices take advantage of this and offer learners the capability to learn at their own pace and not try to match the rate of instruction of their teacher. This also encourages little children to understand self-learning better. Children with disabilities such as dyslexia and autism can be helped by apps to develop social skills and make progress at their own pace without public scrutiny or being subjected to ridicule or judgment.
