Engineering Education

“Learning, gaining, sharing, playing with tools are the process of Engineering Education “.

More than 2000 young adults have been affected by the deadly virus – COVID 19 across Globe. WHO and Research Institutes in the world are expecting higher mortality rates in the coming days.

The academic institutions and Universities are planning to run their classes online via Zoom and MS-Teams.  Hey, Raj!! Have you heard about this deadly virus- COVID 19? What is this, we need to attend our classes online. What about our practical learnings, social meetings, group discussions, etc?

I doubt whether we will be doing justice with our studies and learnings.
Let’s see, what’s there in the future.

IMPACT OF ENGINEERING EDUCATION IN THE COVID ERA!!

As we have discussed the following are the prime obstacles in engineering education in the Present Covid era.

  • It has impacted not only academically but also Psychologically and physiologically.
  • The pragmatic approach is not feasible in the virtual model of education, which is indispensable in engineering.
  • Pupils are facing concentration issues and distractions due to network issues and background noise.
  • Most students are stressed and anxious due to Covid fear and trauma, about their future and Placements.
  • Some of the topics and concepts are tough to explain in virtual mode.
  • Group discussion, physical interactions, and proper understanding of Interpersonal relationships are hampered.
  • Doubt clearing sessions with personal human/mentor touch are missing.
  • Industrial Visits and Industrial learning are not possible due to restrictions on mass moments.
  • Personality, grooming, and role-plays have become a history. Yes, it is a must for employability but now gone are the days with practical role-plays.
  • Many students from far-flung places are not accustomed to the latest IT gadgets and technology.

Some of the modules, concepts, tools are not available in Virtual mode. These are the shortcomings of Virtual learning and impacted Engineering education in Covid Era.
