Breakthrough in online education mode during COVID - 19 pandemic.

The educational institutions have been closed to protect the students from covid-19 pandemic. Almost all of these educational institutions have started online education to ensure that the students do not bear the loss of academics during the pandemic. However, the effectiveness and efficiency of these online education platforms is still not clear especially for countries like India where the technical infrastructure is a major challenge. However, there is no denying to the fact that online modes of education provide a lot of flexibility and convenience to both the faculty as well as the participants. However, for those areas in studies, where practical activities form major part of the curriculum, online education is not the perfect fit. The purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of online education during the current Covid-19 pandemic scenario. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
