March 2020: The nationwide lockdown due to Pendomic Covid-19 has initially thrown higher education in deep crisis but the universities and very many colleges in India have been able to adopt Online teaching from home. It is all the more gratifying that the young students have found Online Classes both interesting and greatly satisfying, says eminent Academician Prof PB Sharma, Vice Chancellor of Amity University Gurugram.
At Amity University, Gurguramthe use of technology in education was already well integrated in our education innovations and almost the entire academic management was on IT savvy Amity Itranet *Amizone* that is the backbone of Amity academic and administrative e- governance.
Further, the Amity University has a long experience of online classes that were going on years for great many African Countries live from its e-education studio at Amity University Noida.
The IT team of Amity has made excellent arrangements for conduction online classes in all its Amity Universities across India utilisingMicroshort Teams, Microsoft LMS, Zoom meetings of HoIs and faculty and also trained its faculty in all the Amity Universities for use of e-platforms and the LMS system.
This prior preparation came quite handy to smoothly switch over to conduct Online Classes from home, the minute the university was closed ever since March 14th.
As per the online reports being received from various institutions in Amity University Gurugram, the attendance of students in online classes is almost 90-95% , more so because the attendance of students. The timely conduct of online classes as per schedule is automatically recordedthus and leaves no room for alteration later on.
The Online Classes have become a great saviour for higher education in India during the present Pendomic Covid-19 Crisis and have paved the way for a more effective integration of online and off line teaching learning environment that the UGC and MHRD has been trying to create for some time.
The Online Classes are also providing a great leaning experience both for the students and the faculty. At Amity University Gurgaon, we have also asked our faculty to record as many classes as possible and thus create and upload online e- resources for further use by students.
As a Vice Chancellor of AUH, I feel so satisfied that despite the threat of disruption of higher education caused by the Pendomic Covid-19 virus crisis our faculty has been able to cover fully even semester syllabi and also conduct Online tests for internal continuous assessment.
The challenge now is to prepare for Online Conduct of End Semester Examinations if the lockdown continues beyond the 21 days ending on April 14th.
