Top 6 Ways Education Mobile Apps Improve Online Learning Experience

#1. Round the Clock Availability of Learning Material

Education apps enable the students with the pre-recorded videos of sessions and lectures delivered by the tutors. They can access these recordings any time using their mobile phones.

While leading from videos, students have the liberty to zoom out any particular picture, rewind/fast forward the video whenever they want.  The video-based learning also allows instructors to shoot lectures at their convenient time.

Thus, the demand for video-based content is continuously increasing as it allows students and teachers with the flexibility to gain and give knowledge as per their convenience.  

#2. Increase Students’ Interest with the Subject

Why create a boring virtual classroom while you can make it fun-filled by adding the gaming elements?

Compared to the traditional classroom system, you can increase students’ engagement with the subject by integrating gamification. You can allow students to compete with other students and reserve the top position on the Leaderboard and earn digital badges/certificates. 

Gamification helps increase student engagement and encourages them to take up education challenges and reach to the next level. It motivates students to enrich their knowledge by exploring new ways of online learning.

#3. Improve Engagement of Learners with Education Mobile App

To drive user engagement, it is very important that you are delivering highly relevant information. This can be achieved by considering personalization.

Integrate Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning technologies in your app to understand users’ behavior and their preferences. Whenever the user visits the app enable them with the relevant courses they have searched previously and shown interest.

The app also allows students to perform mock tests, provide them the feedback for improvement, and provide custom learning until the end of the program/course. They can get answers to their queries on the earliest basis to deliver them a better user experience.

#4. Zero Dependency on Internet

It is not always possible that learners have stable internet connectivity all the time. So make sure the app allows students to gain knowledge without intern connectivity.

With the offline access feature, you can allow students to download the study material when the internet is available. They can store the material on their phones and access it at any time without internet connectivity.

It increases users’ interest as they are less dependent on the internet. Also, when users download modules of a particular program/course, you can get details about which course users prefer to learn and how your app helps them. 

#5. Enhance In-person Interaction between Students & Tutors

Most of the education mobile apps allow students to learn through the videos and study material. This is one-way communication where tutors share the knowledge and students gain knowledge. If they have any concerns, then they ask the tutor through chat or contact number or email.

How exciting it is if the students can attend the live sessions!

Yes, mobile apps for education allows for live streaming where the students can interact with the tutors in real-time, attend the live sessions, and learn the tutorials in real-time.

Students can ask their questions or queries to the instructors and get the relevant answers in real-time for the respective subjects. It gives the feeling of a physical classroom in a virtual environment.

#6. Enable Students with Real-time Updates

It is very important to keep updated the students about each modification or new arrivals about their courses so do not miss anything to learn. Also, if you are updating the flow or features, then it is important to inform users about it so they can take actionable steps in the future. In the Push Notification, you can send a short message in the form of an alert, an advertisement, and an update.
