"This book is a comprehensive yet thematic volume covering all the gaps in sthe existing literature on COVID 19 and the challenges faced by higher education in India. For practitioners of education, it will be a valuable compendium on new pedagogy. The book will serve as an opportunity for faculty, researchers and practitioners of education to reconsider and reimagine the governance, financing and management of institutions of higher education in India. For scholars researching on the digital revolution, the book will provide a ‘ready reckoner’ in terms of data, live examples and help build new theories and concepts of learning."-Manisha Karne, Mumbai School of Economics and Public Policy, India


The volume provides a comprehensive picture of the multiple impacts of COVID -19 on higher education, enrolment, dropout rate and quality of the teaching learning process. The volume is rich in case studies, observations and experiences which provide students’experiences of using online platforms, their psychological, social and technical problems in addition to issues of inequality and the digital divide. The volume will certainly generate pedagogical transformation and educational policy both in India and abroad.
