Impact Of Online Teaching On Primary Level Learners During Lockdown In India: An Overview

Abstract

It is essential to investigate the ramifications of COVID-19quarantine on young students in distinct regions of India in order to recognise the presence of various childhoods across the globe and the ways in which the current health crisis has changed people’s
circumstances. The economic conditions of children’s homes, communities, and nations have an impact on their goals and needs. The recollections of these young children demonstrate how the duration and intensity of the pandemic changed the lives of
children and their families prior to the outbreak. These harmful effects affect a variety of areas, including psychological health, academic success, diet, family financial situation, and interpersonal connections. Researchers should look into children’s life to increase awareness, discuss challenges, share innovations, and alter public policy. Professionals in early childhood care and education from all over the globe explore the effects of COVID19 on children, families, early childhood programmes, preservice/in-service teachers, and postsecondary teacher educators. The study examines the impact of lockdowns on primary school children and how schools and students use e-learning tools and platforms. This study examines 1st-6th graders’ reactions to online/E-learning. 70% of
students used e-learning during the lockdown. Most students used Android-powered smartphones for e-learning. Students face depression, anxiety, poor internet connection, and an uncomfortable home learning environment. Underprivileged and impoverished
pupils face the most educational hurdles during this epidemic. This research recommends strategies to help disadvantaged kids learn. Young minds need a robust education system that supports employability and production, and the state must act swiftly to provide one.
