In this era of digital learning, technology plays a crucial role in the process of knowledge dissemination. It has advanced the world up to a different extent. Everything has changed upside down. The people of India have welcomed digital technologies with open arms. They have instilled these technologies in their veins. From morning to the time people go on their beds, every second they rely on these technologies. From small works of day to education, everything has gone digital. 

The enhancement of digital technology has brought the concept of online classes. Students love to learn from available online resources. Though there are thousands of applications/technology tools available in the market, only a handful of them are popular among the students and educators. You can conduct classes online during this pandemic, from your homes. Your students do not need to travel all the way to colleges/schools to attend classes. The resources you need for teaching online are like anything else in teaching: it all depends on what your students ask for! All you need to do is download certain software onto your desktop/mobile or tablet which provide a variety of tools for online education. In such applications all we need to do is generate a unique ID with which the students can directly join in the class. In such software many facilities are available such as: There is a Record option on such software which comes in particular use for any student who missed the class, or if the professor wishes to upload the video online later. All these applications are completely free.

These are provided to make the teaching process easy and a better understanding of what is happening in the lectures. There’s a whiteboard in the screen sharing options, which all participants can write on, and a ‘break-out room’ facility where the teacher can put students into small groups (and also monitor them with or without their knowledge). You can even record conversations to use for later assessment and feedback, an invaluable tool for helping your students improve. Through such screens sometimes teaching becomes difficult as there’s no in-person supervision, there will undoubtedly be distracting elements like open windows on your student’s screen, the background noise of their family members, etc. The good news is, problems like these can be solved in a variety of ways, by using new tools that help you to mute your mic and switch off your videos. Such tools are helpful to carry out a smooth classroom question. 

To have an interacting class students are provided with tools like the chat book and various emoji signs which helps to give the professors a better idea of whether the student is understanding the matter or not. Online classes are much more attractive than regular ones. The online learning resources are much more entertaining and creative than books, hence many students prefer learning from them.
