Digital education in the Developing World
Every major development in technology sparks a dream in developing countries with regard to its potential impact on education. Internet has contributed relevantly to furthering education in the world. Connected electronic devices enhance the educational horizon of students, even for those who face poverty and geographical segregation.
Governments, NGO’s and CSR’s formulate ideas about the potential influence of computers on childhood education; and they help in providing low-cost internet connected devices to disadvantaged students around the world.
Educational Institutions in developing and backward counties are usually underfunded and unsatisfactorily staffed, principally in poorer and rural areas. Lower cost Internet access devices such as tablets, phablets, and smart phones address the issue of device affordability to a significant extent. Schools can now offer teachers and students access to learning tools and educational content that would otherwise be out of reach.
It is to be noted that technology such as computer aided classes or mobile phone aided instruction can lift student learning in rural and other disadvantaged areas. Information and communication technologies have made a major influence on education. This elevate trust in countries like India and Brazil which are undergoing sharp growth in their educational efforts.

How Electric Current is formed?

How Electric Current is formed? Have you ever wondered how Electric Current is formed? Generally, the flow from one point to another through a medium is called a current. When an electric charge moves from one point to another inside a conductor or a semiconductor, it is actually conducting electric current. Electric charge carriers are micro particles that conduct the electricity. They can be protons, electrons, holes or ions depending on their availability in the conducting material.  Normally electrons and holes are responsible for conducting electricity. This process occurs when a Voltage or a Potential Difference is applied at the two ends of a conductor or a semiconductor. Thus Electric Current is formed when a Voltage of Potential Difference is applied at the two ends of a conductor or semiconductor, i.e. when a closed circuit is formed.
