   “Educational technology portal website is like a jewel in the crown. From the classical education of ancient Greeks to the current state of Modern Greek society little has remained the same. The old methods of teaching using a black board and chalk have outgrown. Though it is still the evergreen method adapted by 80% of the total population on earth.  New and innovative ways of learning and teaching are coming in picture.  As the coming generation is getting smarter, the methods of teaching should be smarter than that. One of the way that has been introduced for learning and teaching is the help of Educational Technology Portal Website using internet. Web is a medium which is very user friendly and allows everyone to become a content creator, developer, writer etc. Portal website is a way to connect to students, teachers, departments, classes, campuses and community.

 Portal website provides news and information that a person seeking education needs. It consist of information and knowledge shared by different colleges, universities, schools and other resources. It  provides all the education related information of different fields at one place and in a consistent and customizable way, anytime and anywhere. It is very flexible and is a self-service. Educational Technology Portal Website provides a common way to access the books, reports, presentations, solutions, videos, software, images, simulations etc to understand a particular topic clearly and efficiently. It reduces material or travel cost and saves time. It makes learning easier for students as it is precise, relevant easy to understand and you can go through it as many times as you like. Students can attend live lectures supported by audio and chat and can be recorded to be used later when needed. It provides an asynchronous discussion forum for learners and provides collaborative learning. It is useful for teachers too. Teachers can create their own web page and put their lectures for others to access. They can put their research or a question and ask students to commutate.

Attributed to the level of education and training provided by the ETPW alone, a considerable percentage of technological educational institutes, students, even before, graduation are absorbed by the work industry, with job positions. The most striking difference in the curriculums universities or schools or colleges and  ETPW is the presence of mandatory laboratory sessions. Laboratory sessions are a major prospect in practical training of students . ETPW does not provide a practical experience for the experiments that are included.

 Thus ETWP offers opportunity to raise educational standards in educational institutions. Large range of ETWP tools are available for teaching and learning. Hence, ETWP remains todays ultimate frontier.

I would say that that with the use of this educational website portal, educational has opened new doors to students to innovation and a research applicable searches resorted just for studies. I would rate it 4 out of 5.inhere the major advantage being the students would slide away to distractions in net though a limitation is that it has not been made compulsory everywhere in a well strict manner. But use of these websites are sure to have a lot of impact on students.it will indeed pave the way to a better future ahead.

The good: helps the students get information at their will and attain the online classes at their will.

The bad: Since it is a web tool it can easy cause distraction among students.

The bottom line: it is an awesome tool that completely changes the way information is shared and thought. Students can access information anytime and can attain classes at the convince of their homes.

Rating : 4/5 (Very Good)
