New circumstances and realities require new initiatives. The recent rise in epidemics
andpandemics necessitates that we are ready with alternative modes of quality education
whenever andwherever traditional and in-person modes of education are not possible. In
this regard, the NationalEducation Policy 2020 recognizes the importance of leveraging the
advantages of technology whileacknowledging its potential risks and dangers. It calls for
carefully designed and appropriately scaledpilot studies to determine how the benefits of
online/digital education can be reaped while addressingor mitigating the downsides. In the
meantime, the existing digital platforms and ongoing ICT-basededucational initiatives
must be optimized and expanded to meet the current and future challenges inproviding
quality education for all.
However, the benefits of online/digital education cannot be leveraged unless the digital
divide iseliminated through concerted efforts, such as the Digital India campaign and the
availability ofaffordable computing devices. It is important that the use of technology for
online and digitaleducation adequately addresses concerns of equity.
Teachers require suitable training and development to be effective online educators. It
cannot beassumed that a good teacher in a traditional classroom will automatically be a
good teacher in anonline classroom. Aside from changes required in pedagogy, online
assessments also require adifferent approach. There are numerous challenges to conducting
online examinations at scale, including limitations on the types of questions that can be
asked in an online environment, handlingnetwork and power disruptions, and preventing
unethical practices.
