The COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent lockdown have not only cast a grave shadow on the lives of people, but also brought the education sector to a temporary standstill. As lockdown is essential during this crucial stage, all the schools, colleges and universities across the country have been closed down as a preventive measure to contain the spread of this deadly virus.

But not even this crisis situation can diminish the zest for knowledge in the minds of the students. Instead, this has pave the way for a new dimension in education -- replacing physical classrooms with an online mode of teaching and learning.

Different methods of technology are being tried and tested by teachers, students and institutions in this phase to minimise the loss of learning experience, especially the studies of curricula.

Even farmers will be affected. We are a digital educational platform that teaches scientific management techniques to farmers in different languages.

Due to the nCoronavirus lockdown of 40 days, in all higher education institutions of India, a total of about 1 crore academic hours are compromised, which will be rather difficult to compensate. Dept of Comm & Journalism, GU has completed 100 online classes in 1 month and the feedback is very much encouraging except the technical glitch.
