ABSTRACT:
The COVID-19 pandemic, declared in 2020, posed unprecedented challenges globally. Governments throughout the world adopted steps to lessen the effect of the infectious sickness brought on by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, including extensive lockdowns and closures of educational institutions. The current study looks at the effects of the pandemic on the educational landscape of Uttarakhand, an area distinguished by its distinct physical and socioeconomic characteristics. Amidst the closure of schools and universities, the transition to online learning became the norm, presenting significant hurdles for students, teachers, and parents, particularly in areas with limited access to digital resources. This study, based on a sample of 667 respondents, employs the snowball sampling method to examine the experiences and challenges faced by stakeholders in Uttarakhand's educational system during the lockdown period. By exploring the multifaceted impacts on learning environments, instructional delivery, and parental involvement, this research aims to provide valuable insights into the adaptation strategies and resilience of individuals within the education sector during times of crisis.
