When it comes to e-learning systems, the ongoing quarantine has opened the eyes of millions of educators worldwide. It turns out that popular doesn’t necessarily mean well-made, and widely-used is not the same as convenient: as traditional education was forced to move online, the issues started piling since day one. Having taken their challenges into account, a Lithuanian EdTech startup, BitDegree, made some tweaks to its platform and is now offering free access to educators worldwide.
Some e-learning systems crash due to never-seen-before traffic, others reveal unexpected security threats, and thousands of teachers simply fail to control the class from behind the screen. Why not take the time in quarantine to experiment with new teaching methods offered by BitDegree that can make their job easier and the results more impressive?

Autonomous and straightforward management of the e-teaching process
Once registered on BitDegree.org, an educator can upload lectures: the platform imposes no limit to the number of students, amount or duration of lectures. If they prefer the inbuilt live streaming option, they can have exclusive control rights, which helps manage a large group of learners remotely. The intuitive design of the platform makes it easy to create assessments, evaluate and track the learners’ progress: all the necessary functions and tools can be found and used in one convenient place.
Unlike many other e-learning systems, the BitDegree platform does not require institution-level installation or maintenance. Any educator can start using it on their own without involving the IT department or other intermediaries. To ensure a smooth start, the company offers introductory tutorials, video guides, on-screen consulting and usage demonstrations.
