MBAs adapt to ICT mode of Teaching & Learning during the 21-Day Lock Down period

Despite the evident difficulties in resuming studies, given the Government-mandated 21-Day Lock Down, technology and online learning have taken on new importance for student learning. MBA Department has introduced BYNDR App, a one-stop online teaching and learning support platform, as a solution to this issue. Classes may have stopped, but that does not stop Learning. MBA Department is providing education resources and learning support for students, through online learning as a temporary alternative.

Faculty Members have also resorted to “Screen Recorder with Audio” on their phones as the means to cover their syllabus, strengthen students’ subject knowledge and impart Learning for Life. They are now creating videos of their modules and posting it on BYNDR App for students to access. The Assignments and other discussions are encouraged on this App. Faculty Members are even making PODCAST’s sharing information related to the subject using ANCHOR App. These initiatives have brought back the lively class-like environment strengthening the bond between Teachers and Students.

Basic Protective Measures against the new Coronavirus

• Wash your hands frequently
Regularly and thoroughly clean your hands with an alcohol-based hand rub or wash them with soap and water.

Why? Washing your hands with soap and water or using alcohol-based hand rub kills viruses that may be on your hands.


• Maintain social distancing
Maintain at least 1 metre (3 feet) distance between yourself and anyone who is coughing or sneezing.
Why? When someone coughs or sneezes they spray small liquid droplets from their nose or mouth which may contain virus. If you are too close, you can breathe in the droplets, including the COVID-19 virus if the person coughing has the disease.

• Avoid touching eyes, nose and mouth
Why? Hands touch many surfaces and can pick up viruses. Once contaminated, hands can transfer the virus to your eyes, nose or mouth. From there, the virus can enter your body and can make you sick.

• Practice respiratory hygiene
Make sure you, and the people around you, follow good respiratory hygiene. This means covering your mouth and nose with your bent elbow or tissue when you cough or sneeze. Then dispose of the used tissue immediately.
Why? Droplets spread virus. By following good respiratory hygiene you protect the people around you from viruses such as cold, flu and COVID-19.

• If you have a fever, cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical care early
Stay home if you feel unwell. If you have a fever, cough and difficulty breathing, seek medical attention and call in advance. Follow the directions of your local health authority.
Why? National and local authorities will have the most up to date information on the situation in your area. Calling in advance will allow your health care provider to quickly direct you to the right health facility. This will also protect you and help prevent the spread of viruses and other infections.
