Covid-19 lockdown: Gujarat education dept rides on digital media
As all the educational institutions remain shut across Gujarat, the state education department has come up with a unique initiative to reach out to school students for ensuring that there is no academic loss amid the Coronavirus outbreak.
The department has decided that students of Classes 3 to 9 and 11 will now be able to revise and practice their subjects from the comfort of their homes using regional TV channels that began broadcasting daily hour-long tutorials.
The department is going to start live and recorded lessons through a private television channel.
Under the initiative, which is called door-to-door reaching out to students, the education department has directed nearly 1.5 lakh government primary teachers to reach out to all individual students and hand over worksheets, all 51 weekly tests and their answer sheets conducted in the second semester to Class 3 to 9 and 11 students.
These teachers will also publicise and make the beneficiaries aware of this initiative of lessons to be taught through television.
The various subjects for which the revision and practice sessions have been arranged include Mathematics, Science and English for the Class 7 to 9 students and Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Mathematics, and Accountancy for the students of Class 11
Vinod Rao, education secretary of the state, said, “We will not allow students to seat idle at home during the crucial time of academic session.
The department is coming up with the innovative idea to engage both the students and teachers to expedite the imparting process.
“Students can also avail the service online by choosing from a number of Gujarati TV channels so they do not miss out on their academics due to the shutdown,” he informed.

The state government is also mulling to explore other platforms like Bhaskaracharya Institute for Space Applications and Geoinformatics (BISAG), and the state’s educational channel ‘Vande Gujarat’, which can also be possible with the help of Jio mobile phone and DD dish,” according to an official of the education department.
