This in turn would be paving the way for bringing diversity in teaching that means teaching is no more limited to face-to-face modality. Online platforms are going to create a learning environment that is expected to help them in building knowledge, adapting 21st century skills, and be an active member of the new tech-based learning community. This will have a significant effect on children, particularly in terms of coping with challenges during COVID-19, and on their perception about teaching and teachers. BEP’s plan to create conditions for higher order quality teaching is possible if technology is embedded in the process and if teachers have courage and demonstrate new skills. This will offer a new role model to the teachers, a necessary condition to the new normal.

Being a trailblazer in education in Bangladesh, BEP has been working with the relevant education departments in planning and promoting the implementation of lessons through internet and television, targeting children in primary and secondary schools. To ensure equitable education opportunity for student without access to television, BEP has been conducting classes through basic phone based voice conference across the country including urban slums and hard to reach locations.
