Covid-19 has jolted the global economy with a pervasive impact on almost all the sectors, including education. Online learning which came as a panacea for the crisis is increasingly seen as a new paradigm in education. Although online education cannot replace classroom education due to the personalized nature of attention and face to face interactions, it can be an effective supplement to the brick-and- mortar model of education. However, we need to reconstruct and restructure the current pedagogy to seamlessly integrate online learning into mainstream education. It not only needs to take cognizance of different learning pace of students and develop customized solutions for them but the concerns of increased screen time, anxiety and stress triggered due to the unavailability of the resources required for this mode of learning also need to be addressed.
