Impact of Covid-19 on Higher Education Sector

In 2020 the COVID-19 had shocked and almost stopped the world. The Indian Government, after observing and checking the effect of Coronavirus has extended the lockdown period in different phases. During the lockdown phase, all the educational institutions throughout the nation have also gone through the shutdown mode. Even the exams, internships, etc get postponed for children’s safety issues, and some students get promoted to the next class wherever required. Closing of the universities and cancelling of the classes during this pandemic situation worldwide has led to enormous anxiety. COVID-19 has created many challenges and opportunities for educational institutes and helps them adopt a new learning way by developing their technological knowledge. Now the classes, assignment, presentation and examination were conducted online. The switch to the online teaching mode leads to increased students’ creativity and helps in no loss of studies. Closure of educational institutions was only the way to minimise the spreading of the virus. Now, the educational institute reopening has not brought back the same situation as before the lockdown. But still, there were some hurdles in achieving this new mode of learning.
