Challenges and Opportunities in Implementing Digital Learning in Government Schools of Haryana

Abstract

The integration of digital learning tools in government schools in Haryana represents a significant shift towards modernizing educational practices. This paper explores the multifaceted challenges and opportunities associated with the implementation of digital learning initiatives in this context. Key challenges include infrastructural deficiencies, limited technological access, and resistance to change among educators and students. Additionally, issues related to digital literacy and the uneven distribution of resources further complicate the integration process. Despite these hurdles, the transition to digital learning presents numerous opportunities, including enhanced engagement through interactive content, personalized learning experiences, and the potential for bridging educational disparities. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative interviews with stakeholders and quantitative data analysis to provide a comprehensive overview of the current state and future prospects of digital learning in Haryana’s government schools. Recommendations are proposed to address identified challenges and leverage opportunities to foster a more inclusive and effective digital learning environment.
