Abstract

Covid 19 completely changed the teaching and learning methods in the field of education. Learners had to equip themselves with modern tools, as science would pave way for educative models, streamlined in the future. But the space and time to learn the new technology and the need for it had been a great struggle for the students. Students felt that group discussion, getting acquainted with one another, team spirit, coordination, awareness, and the role of sharing one’s task were some of the limitations. They responded by stating that the beginning of the pandemic had made them feel that their education and life had come to a standstill. A survey was done on online learning with second-year science stream students. The study found that students in online learning mode were inclined more on purchasing a smartphone than to learn through an online class. They had distractions during online classes as house members treated their presence as something normal and their open display of affection, anger, and frustration disturbed the students. Taking notes as the sound was feeble and quick discussion were some of the difficulties faced by the learners. Electrical disruptions and slow Wi-Fi networks were the other major problems. The majority of the students felt that traditional teaching and learning with books are preferred to online learning. The thought of interaction and interest leads to constructiveness. The constructive technology in teaching and the misuse of technology should be curtailed. The teaching therefore should pay way by balancing technology and traditional learning to bring a productive outcome for the learners.
