OBJECTIVES OF THE PROJECT
The following project (ONLINE CLASSES DURING LOCKDOWN)
was done to analyze how online classes affected the lives of students
during the lockdown due to the pandemic. As we know, online classes are
common among students. Not only online classes but also a “work from
home” scheme was common to our parents. We were interested in how it
has impacted the lives of students, whether positively or negatively, and
how parents of students felt about the same. To know and understand
more about the same, we conducted surveys with our peers and some
parents and prepared a script among ourselves to entertain and convey
our message. We got a wide range of responses, and a successful script
was prepared. We also used the internet to gather more information on
the same. We finally analyzed our findings and wrote our reflections.

Also, through this project, we aimed to learn more about teamwork. We


also had an objective to improve our research and report-making skills.
We also wanted to learn how to be better interviewers and surveyors.

The following project is also done to meet the CBSE requirement for the
internal assessment (Project Making) for Term 2 AY 2022-2023.

During the period from oct-nov, we were given the necessary details of
the project and the guidelines for its preparation. The widespread
usage of online tools like meet, zoom and how it affects teenagers
interested us, and we on Nov 21st, decided on the topic for our project
and got confirmation from the teacher to proceed on the same and
prepared a preview for our project. During the months of nov-dec, we
divided the labor among us. Google research will be done by Minhal,
Fahad, and Ayaan. The survey will be done by Habib and Ayaan, Panel
Discussion will be conducted by Minhal, Fahad, and Habib. The
surveys were conducted on the 10th,11th, and 12th of January. The
Panel Discussion is conducted on the 13th and 14th of January. The
analysis of the surveys and Panel Discussion was created. The
preparation of the main report began. We made a detailed study on the
topic and concluded with our thoughts and findings. Individual reports
were created. The teacher told us to make the necessary changes and
we made them. During the months of Jan-Feb, the main report and the
individual reports were fully completed. The evidence was compiled.
All were arranged neatly in the file and binded. We finally started
preparing for our presentation, which is a Panel Disscusion. We
prepared the necessary scripts. We four joined Google Meet and
recorded the Panel Discussion session. We submitted it and the report
before the deadline and adhered to the instructions given by the
teacher.

Script for presentation
Moderator: Habib,
Student: Minhal,
Media Person: Ayaan,
Anchor: Fahad

Moderator: Good evening everyone and welcome to our presentation on online classes

during lockdown. I am Habib, the moderator for today's discussion.

Joining us today, we have Minhal, a student who has been taking online classes

during the lockdown, Ayaan, a media person who has been covering the impact of

the lockdown on mineducation, and Fahad, an anchor who will be moderating the

discussion.

Fahad: Thank you, Habib. So, Minhal, can you tell us about your experience with

online classes during the lockdown?

Minhal: Sure, Fahad. Honestly, it's been a bit of a rollercoaster ride. At first, I was

excited to be able to take classes from home and not have to worry about commuting.

But as the days went on, I found it harder and harder to stay

focused and motivated. It's been difficult to have the same level of interaction and

engagement with my classmates and teachers as I would in a physical classroom.

Ayaan: That's a common sentiment, Minhal. From my reporting on the topic, I've

seen that many students have struggled with the lack of structure and accountability

that comes with online classes. But at the same time, I've also seen some innovative
solutions being implemented, like virtual office hours and breakout rooms for group

discussions.

Minhal: Yeah, that's definitely been helpful. I've been able to have one-on-one

meetings with my teachers and get extra help when I need it. But I still think it's not

the same as in-person classes.

Fahad: I can definitely understand that, Minhal. Ayaan, can you tell us a bit more

about the impact of the lockdown on education, specifically in terms of access to

technology and resources?

Ayaan: Sure, Fahad. Unfortunately, the lockdown has highlighted the digital divide

that exists in many communities. Many students, particularly those from low-

income households, lack access to the technology and resources needed to

participate in online classes. This has led to a widening of the achievement gap

between these students and their more affluent peers.

Habib: Thank you, Ayaan, for highlighting this important issue. And thank you,

Minhal, for sharing your personal experience. I think it's clear that online classes

during the lockdown have presented a number of challenges for students, educators,

and the education system as a whole. But it's also important to note that there have

been some positive developments as well.

Moderator: So, that's all the time we have for today. Thank you again to our panelists,
Minhal, Ayaan, Fahad, and thank you to our audience for joining us.
We hope this presentation has provided some valuable insights on the topic of online

classes during lockdown.


Main Report
Online classes have become a prevalent practice during lockdowns caused by the
COVID-19 pandemic. These classes have allowed students to continue their
education while staying at home and adhering to social distancing guidelines.
However, there are a number of challenges that have arisen as a result of this
shift to online education.

One major concern is the impact of online tools, such as Zoom and Meet, on
children's mental well-being, behavior, and education. There are questions about
how much time children are spending on these platforms and if this is having an
impact on their mental well-being or behavior.
Additionally, there are concerns about the potential for cyberbullying and online
addiction as children spend more time on these platforms.

To address these concerns, parents and guardians are being encouraged to set
guidelines and monitor their children's online activity. This can include setting
time limits for the use of online tools, monitoring interactions on these
platforms, and having discussions with their children about the potential risks
and benefits of online tools.

Students are also being asked about their experiences with online classes. Many
are reporting that they feel that their use of online tools has had an impact on
their mental well-being, and there are reports of negative effects such as
cyberbullying and online addiction. However, some students also feel that online
tools have had a positive impact on their education and social lives.

In conclusion, while online classes have allowed students to continue their


education during the COVID-19 pandemic, there are concerns about the impact
of these classes on children's mental well-being, behavior, and education.
