An increasing number of cities ,states & nations have shut down Institution of learning as a response to the Covid 19 Pandemic. As per UNESCO’S 2020 report, over 80% of the world students are not attending college. Examinations are being cancelled & classes have been temporarily suspended. How long can this closure be continued? Even though India is gearing up to slowly open its businesses, Educational Institutions are expected to last to reopen.

In keeping with this understanding, educators are now using digital technologies that enable a virtual immersive learning environment, which is engineered to mimic physical reality. The focus of institute and university is on providing a content rich experience which is not only efficient but has the maximum possibility knowledge retention of students. For the past few years educational content is being created keeping hand held devices like mobile phone, laptop and tablet in mind.

While we are still adjusting to this completely digital classroom, this is beneficial for students across the globe, especially testing times like these.

As educators our mission must be to enable and encourage institute to take a step forward in the right direction and adapt to these change in structure.
