The way we learn in India has really changed since the COVID-19 pandemic. At first, everything moved online almost overnight. Students who were used to sitting in classrooms suddenly found themselves in virtual classes on Zoom or Google Meet. It was a big shift, but it meant that learning could go on even when we were all staying at home.

Technology became a huge part of education. We saw e-books and online assignments become the norm. It wasn’t just about using a computer for homework; it was about making learning more interactive and accessible from anywhere.

Schools also started offering a hybrid model* of education, with a mix of online and in-person classes, so students could choose what worked best for them. This hybrid model gave a lot of flexibility, making it easier for everyone to stay engaged with their studies.

And let’s not forget, the pandemic highlighted how important mental health is. Schools and colleges began paying more attention to students’ emotional well-being, offering counseling and support to help them navigate these challenging times.

Overall, these changes, while challenging, have made education more adaptable and tech-savvy, preparing students for a future where digital learning is a big part of everyday life.
