“Change is the end result of all true learning.”
But what happens when learning in itself goes through a sudden change?
Today, our education system has gone through a paradigm shift not just in terms of resources and content, but also in terms of mode. E-books replaced the hardcovers, Google Classrooms replaced project files, tablet screens replaced whiteboards, and classroom interaction replaced by virtual meetings.
Today, the COVID-19 crisis has disrupted many sectors, including the educational area. Among many casualties of COVID-19, there is also demise of the traditional classrooms. While online courses have existed even before the pandemic, they served a different purpose to learners, like granting them accessibility to modules in case they do not have means or supplementing what individuals were taught in physical classrooms. Online mode was never meant to be the fundamental mode of learning back then.
