Covid-19 pandemic education system will have a lot of loopholes as well. Taking examinations online will not be so much authentic. Students will lose the fear of exams. Colleges are keeping students busy with various assignments projects and virtual teaching but on the long run, this won't work and won't be much effective and efficient. The level of education will drop if it relies more on online structures. Going for online internships is of course a good initiative. However, in the long run, to get everyone back to its place and also keeping in mind the economy, older ways of teaching need to be adapted.

Many of them really had huge effect on Covid19. Many of them have lost their jobs and the countries are facing a severe threat to the economy. Educational institutions and companies are really working hard to overcome it. By the combined work of all students and staff, we can overcome and compete with the other countries. Due to lockdown, many of us now know the real value of education. Institutes are upgrading in learning and technology usage.

The Covid 19 pandemic has transformed the Indian higher education system. Previously, the education had become too costly and there were a lot of students who were not able to afford Hi-Fi coaching with hefty fee structures. Now due to online courses which are most likely to be cheaper than the old brick-and-mortar system of education. The amount of fees spent just for the infrastructure has gone in vain. We can see that these days, coaching is being offered at up to 90% discount. Thus, the education will be accessible more easily with good quality to maximum students.

The coronavirus pandemic has changed the education system. Because now the colleges are closed and students are doing online classes. *Many students belong to the region where internet is not good so they are not able to attend classes. *Online app for study isn't also good because many times students face connectivity problems. * We can study theory subjects but cannot understand practical subjects clearly in online classes.

IIM Rohtak subscribed to Coursera for all the students which helped us to get some premium paid courses for free of cost. It has been a great journey. Exploring the WFH internship opportunity and upskilling for future and utilizing this time for self-development. The challenges are there but being management students, we should always be ready for new challenges.

The pandemic clearly has many positive impacts despite the obvious negative ones. Employees and companies in the IT sector have and will continue to benefit from the newfound work from home trend. From my observation, people have been more focused and productive while working from home. It is going to save a lot of commute time and will do some cost cutting too if more and more companies will allow employees to work from home whenever possible.

We want to re-think of our approach towards an uninterrupted education service. Time wherein we move out of traditional approach and accept the technology available to digitize our education facilities. With online classrooms, workplaces, and job markets changing attributable to the rapidly emerging technologies, edtech has become all the more relevant today, and can still positively impact more and more people across the country.

Teachers, students, and schools are struggling with online education. The effects could last for years. While this conversion to online courses is prompt and provisional, it should have long-term consequences on how education and learning are delivered. The key challenge is that the students have gone back home and geographical region residing students comprises the key chunk. Delivering the tutorial content with special relation to their syllabus would be a significant challenge. Mostly students within the rural areas suffer from network problems and empty luxury of getting iPad or smart phones.

At this Covid pandemic crisis, more Indians are referring online or e-learning as compared to traditional classroom training. Indian demography is right for online learning because many of the learners come from rural or semi-rural areas where educational facilities, be it school, college or entrance exam level, is below par. Besides, the education provided by the prevailing universities also are ineffectual to fulfill the standards come into being by India Inc. Also, professionals find it easier to upskill themselves through e-learning courses which will be taken at their own convenience while managing their jobs.

Covid pandemic has taught many lessons to the Indian higher education. Earlier also the education system was working the same. There were few online platforms where online teaching was available but now every institute and every teacher is teaching online, they are teaching through WhatsApp or Skype or Duo because Zoom has security issues.

Online classes for them is totally new and they are loving interacting with the fellow students discussing the ideas. I see positivity in them being at home, they are happy that they are at home but are in class like situation. They say that it's blessing a disguise for us.

India has been witnessing different forms of disasters at different point of time and the most crucial phase is dealing with the post-disaster situation. Today, we are amidst a devastating pandemic in the form of Covid -19, which has already left a significant impact on our lives before we could comprehend the situation. No doubt, this virus has torn apart families, but will it tear apart Indian education? It is indeed a state of panic for every aspirant of higher education.

India has been witnessing different forms of disasters at different point of time and the most crucial phase is dealing with the post-disaster situation. Today, we are amidst a devastating pandemic in the form of Covid -19, which has already left a significant impact on our lives before we could comprehend the situation. No doubt, this virus has torn apart families, but will it tear apart Indian education? It is indeed a state of panic for every aspirant of higher education. Most of us are left with the question of next course of action, while waiting for notifications/ circulars from different regulatory bodies of higher education. We realise the fact that we did not have any concrete plans with us regarding how to respond to such a pandemic. However, the present situation prompted us to think beyond the existing system and experiment with a new mode of imparting education I. e. online forum. Undoubtedly, there is going to be a significant change in the way higher education has been perceived till now, and so is the step further. Legal education is one emerging area already having a great impact of globalization, hence, in the changing scenario, we are going to witness many changes, be it classroom learning, placement or internship. The expectations of the employers soon are also going to change significantly. In this juncture, School of Law at the NorthCap University, having placed along with a school of engineering, availed the benefit of turning its traditional classrooms into virtual ones without interrupting continuous learning process. Not only that, we have also explored opportunities for our students to grab online internship opportunities or work from home despite the adverse situation around, just ensuring that the young budding lawyers feel themselves well in track and remain connected to the outside world. It is not only the students, but the faculty has also been trained to use online tools for imparting education. One of the advantages the present scenario has made us explore is holding series of webinars with eminent personalities. This trend is going to continue and a large section of aspirants is going to be benefited by this. Apart from this, we are moving towards an AI based examination system keeping in mind the future of our students. This is certainly going to set a trend for future evaluation process. Hence, the pandemic is going to change our notion towards education and we are going to have its impact in the coming days.

If you can see you will notice that the colleges of MBA/technical education are at the downward line. One of my known institutes couldn't get even 10 students to take admission for their MBA course. For this reason, they started to make their content available online on their platforms. By this way, they can gain students. Yes, the institutes are affected but a new era is being developed in the education sector.

We, as person want money from various source at a single time. In offline F2F mode hardly they can teach 20 students but in this online mode they can teach million or billion of students. Yes, not in his/her own country but can do it internationally.
