Digital Collaborations in Classrooms…
31st of December 2019, World Health Organisation sighted some cases of Pneumonia with unknown causes in The Wuhan city. As some wise men have said Time flies like an arrow, it was then no wonder for me with the Tik & Tok of the clock Dr. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, WHO’s director-general declared the novel coronavirus outbreak a public health emergency of international concern (PHEIC). With a fraction of sight, everyone went
through the lockdown escapade. Everything happening around me felt surreal. Fortunate enough my school had that much capability to start online classes much before than government’s decision. World tech giants soon dived into this sea of virtual meet. With Zoom, Teamlink, Meet, Teams and a lot of other platforms children started getting the taste of a new way of learning which intern was a corollary of the pre-existing microorganism “COVID 19”. It had all the innate qualities of its parent as it acted like a friend who took us closer to our family members simultaneously it acted like a foe which took us away from our dear schoolmates as well as it was highly contagious soaking even our 0.1% of interest from the studies. This cycle spontaneously gained energy and turned houses into classrooms and classrooms into covid isolation wards. Atlast, the wisdom of Indian immigrants at the silicon valley immensely helped the whole world in COLLABORATING TECH WITH EDUCATION.
