Abstract

The coronavirus pandemic paused an incident threat to modern society. The coronavirus pandemic caused shutdown of many life activities including educational activities. One of the most important challenges that human society needs to address is the education of students whose learning was hindered due to coronavirus pandemic. In India about 32 million learners stopped going to schools and colleges. The education system had no choice but to switch to online learning for ensuring the continuity of teaching-learning during pandemic. This chapter talks about technological competencies (i.e., tools) evolved and embraced by educational institutions of India from elementary to tertiary levels. The study also attempts to address learners' attitudes, perceptions, and preferences for online education by means of a survey piloted among K-12 students in Gwalior, Madhya Pradesh, India.
