Abstract

The teaching-learning process had been confined to the classrooms before technology found its place in the field of education. The classrooms were either student-centred or teacher-centred. The scenario changed slowly and classroom instruction became technology-supported. Today's learners, the digital natives, rely more on technology rather than teachers. The drastic change raised a question whether they need teachers or technology for higher levels of learning and the possible results. In order to find out an answer to this question, a study was conducted among the young engineering graduates belonging to a private technical institution in Vellore district, Tamil Nadu. Surprisingly, the results favoured the traditional mode of teaching in spite of the numerous advantages listed out by the respondents.
