The information explosion is the rapid increase in the amount of published information or data and the effects of this abundance. Each and everyone is responsible for filtering the best ones of the abundantly available information. Consuming the required knowledge will make one move forward with time.
"The continued focus on textbooks and content without integrating technology and social learning risks perpetuating passive modes of learning.
