GETTING ADMISSION IN IIT OR MBBS IS A CHALLENGEPost covid-19, the world will be a different place. There will be visible changes across a range of behaviors, from shopping and eating out to travel. The impact of the pandemic has already been felt on education sector too. It is reasonable to assume that this impact will be here to stay for a fairly long time. It is also an event that has given rise to push to digitization of businesses, specially in the education sector.We have to prepare ourselves to bring the best of online education into the classrooms - a blended learning approach - and in the process, offer the students a powerful learning experience, who lacked good education or quality resource access.Below are some important ways in which education will change in the post covid-19 time:Blended learning will become a reality: The classroom will be supplemented by online coursework. This way, students may be required to physically attend classes on fewer days and will be free to study at their own pace. This will also give them adequate time to assimilate information.Training of teachers will be qualitatively different: All the teachers will have to be trained for online teaching as well. This will go a long way to ensure that they are comfortable with technology and will be able to seamlessly switch between online and offline modes of teaching the curriculum. And above all, teachers will feel empowered to deliver a more impactful lecture than before.Use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) will help personalize the learning experience for every child: Soon, educators will have to discard the 'one-size-fits-all' approach that is mostly followed in traditional classrooms and use technology to offer a learning experience that is uniquely suited to a child's learning needs. The blended approach to learning, in turn will help all types of students, since they will have the opportunity to engage with different types of content such as video, audio, presentations, thereby increasing the ability to personalize learning.Role of teachers will need to be redefined: With information readily available just a click away, the role of a teacher from that of a 'knowledge-giver' will gradually move to one of a 'facilitator' in the development of learners and helping them to become life-long learners.Technology will be used effectively to reduce the time spent by teachers on tasks such as paper-setting, evaluating and grading: This will help the teachers focus more effectively on teaching and course improvement.
