Description
This book examines the profound impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the school education system in India. It explores how administrators, educators, students, and parents navigated unprecedented disruptions as traditional face-to-face learning came to a halt. The text details the rapid transition to online and remote education, documenting various governmental and institutional initiatives across television, radio, and digital platforms to maintain learning continuity. Furthermore, the book analyzes both the positive outcomes—such as accelerated technological adoption, increased teacher accountability, and educational innovation—and the critical challenges that emerged. These include the digital divide, lack of device access among economically weaker sections, migrant student displacement, financial burdens, and the psychological toll of isolation on students' mental health. Finally, it evaluates assessment hurdles and the shift toward blended learning, highlighting the enduring changes and infrastructure needs for the future of Indian education.
