- Description
- Online education became an integral part of the education system during the COVID-19 pandemic. All the schools, colleges and universities adopted new technology in teaching-learning pedagogy. Academicians and students were taught to practice online education with many challenges and difficulties. The Constitution of India includes many beneficial provisions to promote the integral development of scheduled tribes. It enables them and protects them from socioeconomic status and forms of exploitation. In Kerala, the Scheduled Tribes Development Department is implementing various programs for the educational, social and economic development of Scheduled Tribes. Kerala is the most literate state in India. It creates a strong academic foundation at the school level. Even though the COVID-19 pandemic spread throughout the world, the government continued education in the state through the VICTERS educational television channel with the help of various ICT tools. This studys objective is to determine the challenges faced by tribal students in the Idukki District of Kerala State in online education and to understand the social and technological challenges they face in the learning process. An in-depth interview method was adopted for the study. This qualitative study explored the perspectives of teachers who teach tribal students. 2025 Malque Publishing. All rights reserved.
