Abstract

In this pandemic era, many countries all over the world started a new way of transferring information into their school children which is none other than online class. Many states in India started their school classes through online. For example in Kerala, the Education Department started the online classes officially in the name of ‘First Bell’ through ‘Victors’ channel. Earlier television and mobile phones was not a necessary thing for study purpose and Activity Based Learning (ABL) method is following in schools. But nowadays, the teaching – learning process is completely transformed into online platform. So in this paper, I would like to examine the relevance of online classes and their prospects and consequences in Kerala State with the special reference of Activity Based Learning.
