  • Abstract:
  • The COVID-19 pandemic triggered an unprecedented shift in India's education system, affecting over 320 million learners and forcing a rapid transition from in-person to online instruction through platforms like Zoom, Google Meet, and LMS tools. While this shift preserved educational continuity, it exposed substantial gaps namely technological inequality, socio-economic divides, limited engagement, screen-induced fatigue, and challenges around assessment integrity and mental health. In the post-COVID era, as hybrid models gain traction, reconciling the flexibility of online learning with these persistent challenges is critical. This paper examines the multifaceted issues affecting students, particularly in India’s socio-economically diverse context, and evaluates whether online learning can evolve into a robust and equitable educational model.
