Abstract:
Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease. It was first identified in December 2019 in Wuhan China and has since spread globally. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared the coronavirus epidemic a pandemic. This virus infection was gradually increases. For the light of raising the concern about the current situation, Assam government declared the lock down period. From this time all the educational institutes were closed till now. But this situation hampers the student’s educational life. So, educational institutes were taking online classes for intensive measure. For this concern I discussed about the effects or impact of student’s education due to COVID-19. From this research I prepared a Google form collected data through online from the PG students of Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat. Data revealed that 75.00 per cent of the respondents belonged to the age group 23-24 years and 25.00 per cent respondents belonged to the age group of 25- above years. That means the age group of 23-24 years students were in masters students and those students belongs to the age group of above 25 years were in Ph.D students. Data also revealed that 87.50 per cent students had faced problem due to the network connectivity during the online classes. Most of the respondents (93.75%) had least effected in the classes are as efficient in online as in offline. That means offline learning is most effective than the online learning.
