How has the Covid-19 affected your Schooling & Learning?

Everyday life itself offers Lessons to learn but to begin the process of learning schools and colleges are the epitome for the spread of Knowledge and wisdom.
In such a situation where education is something that is ought to be spread from these institutions its important to measure as to how one of the most cruel disasters of the Earth, the COVID-19, has affected these institutions as well as the process of learning & dissemination of Knowledge

Education:
Being one among the core necessities today Education is the backbone of any developing nation. It is the only instrument that any developing nation can employ to win it's fight aginst the evils of poverty, crime, illiteracy, mental slavery and many more.

Being in such a position that it can affect an entire population in whatever manner the rationality proceeds it is the least that any society can expect education & educational systems to be constant, perennial & ready for any unwelcoming circumstance.

COVID-19
To begin with, the advent of COVID-19 compelled various governemnts to announce their policies of Lockdown and social Distancing in order to curb the spread of COVID-19 and avoid casualties.
In the same sequence all educational institutions whether governmental or Private, all had no option but to shut down their Physical functioning. Classes got suspended and Exams got postponed whether Competitive or usual board exams. All whether wards or trachers or even the parents of scholl going childrrn all had to abide by the Lockdown as well as Social Distancing norms and all this led to a halt to this process of learning and schooling.

In such a situation a wave of change got its reins and many Schools as well as Colleges shifted their focus from physical classes to Online classes and Digital Solutions. Such a process was a tough one to execute as neither the teachers nor the students were anyehere known to such a process and its various folds.

Considering the hasteness, lack of any training, and resources at hand While it was a tough one it got executed well.


01. According to UNESCO, 63 million teachers were affected
.in 165 countries. A total of 1.3 billion learners around the world were not able to attend
schools or universities, and approximately 320 million learners are affected in India alone.

02. According to the key indicators of Household Social Consumption on Education in India
report, based on the 2017-18 NSSO, fewer than 15% of rural Indian households have
internet access (as opposed to 42% urban Indian households).

03. Availability of electricity is a significant challenge to taking advantage of education
online. In a recent 2017-18 survey, the Ministry of Rural Development found that only 47%
of Indian households receive more than 12 hours of electricity and more than 36% of
schools in India operate without electricity.

This suggests that while students from families
with better means of living can easily bridge the transition to remote learning, students
from underprivileged backgrounds are likely to accede to inefficiency.
