Abstract : The sudden outbreak of a deadly disease, Covid-19 pandemic caused by a Corona Virus (SARS-CoV-2) shook the entire world. Stay away, maintain social distancing is the mantra these days in the corona-induced issues. It had a far-reaching impact in every field. Education system was challenged across the world forcing educators and learners to shift to online learning and becoming tech-savvy almost overnight. It involved the ability to use a computer or mobile connected to a network, that offers unparalleled flexibility. Transition was way more difficult and almost impossible especially for the developing countries. Digital learning had been in practice for some time supplementing traditional face to face classroom learning at certain institutions. But to shift entirely to online teaching–learning or stop education temporarily till this crisis ends left no option but to change their traditional pedagogy inspite of the reluctance. A changing education was imperative and can clearly show the paradigm shift from traditional modes. New technologies and online platforms can be called a panacea for this crisis due to its capability to disseminate knowledge to a wide demographic. This paper intends to find its impact on the education system- advantages, disadvantages, opportunities, and challenges in time of crisis both from the perspective of the student as well as educators. The methodology applied will be referring to secondary sources.
