Digital Education During and Post COVID

Digital Education During and Post COVID
The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted the academic
world so much that it has created a new normal
for all stakeholders - seamless education
anytime, anywhere. The lockdown has made (forced
in some cases) schools and universities take
their chain of institutions online to continue
education. This is not just a lockdown trend, but
the birth of future education. Everything is
online course accessibility, educational
resources, student/teacher performance tracking,
attendance, assignments, grading, peer-to-peer
collaboration. Our digital presence is the new
normal in the education world and in-person
activities have become a thing of the past
now. Knowing this, the question that arises for
institution leaders across the globe is - Can you
run your institution without a Learning
Management System (LMS) during and post COVID? In
my opinion, it's difficult or almost impossible
to imagine today's education without a quality
LMS. The educational institutions need to migrate
to fully online

systems in a matter of days and require it to run
on a safe, secure, and scalable cloud keeping in
mind data security. Their need is for a robust
and reliable platform so that there is no worry
about scalability, updates, patches, maintenance
and other cloud costs. A solid LMS will enable
institutions to take education directly to homes,
help teachers and students to collaborate on
day-to-day activities and support with features
to make teaching engaging and productive. It must
be intuitive and easy to use for students to make
their learning interactive, effective and at the
same time for administrators to monitor easily
and in an organized manner. To this cause,
startups like this Hyderabad based startup -
Byndr have come forward and offered its premium
