E-Pathshaalas were held by the state government under Mission Prerna during the pandemic to conduct educational activities. Under this mission, children are being imparted education through digital channels, such as telecasting educational programs on Doordarshan, WhatsApp classes and Mission Prerna YouTube channel, till now. Reportedly, 29.09 lakh groups of teachers and students have been formed to conduct WhatsApp virtual classes and so far, 67.73 lakh students have benefited from these groups.

In a bid to provide tech-based learning facilities in primary schools across the state, almost 5000 smart classes have been equipped with modern facilities. Amalgamating EdTech with traditional teaching methodology, other than being the need of the hour, also enhances the receptivity and understanding of the learner. Hence, the introduction of EdTech in classrooms is a welcome move.
