The district administration has started preparation to record some of the best classes taken by teachers in various subjects in primary sections, which will be available on YouTube and WhatsApp, the official said.
"If things move smoothly, the system will be available by the end of February 2019," Kulange said.
Since most of the students are cell phone savvy and mobile phones are available in almost all households, this method of online learning will help students in their home studies, Kulange said.
This would also help them to learn about the subjects taught in classrooms when they remain absent, he said.
"Not only the students of Ganjam, but it will also be shared with students of other districts," he said.
The online education will be an additional input to the students besides classroom education, said district education officer (DEO), Ganjam Sanatan Panda.ALSO READ | WhatsApp will no longer be available on THESE phones, check here In the first phase, the administration wants to rollout subjects such as science and mathematics.
