Abstract

With coronavirus rapidly spreading across the world, the Covid19 cases are progressively increasing and Governments across the globe have imposed lockdown to ensure social distancing, apart from maintaining personal hygiene, as the only way to curtail the spread. Alarmingly, washing hands and social distancing as the only preventive measures, the coronavirus gained a footing in many countries and started quickly infecting in communities (Kai Kupferschmidt & Jon Cohen, 2020). People can only save lives and themselves by staying home. Governments across the globe have imposed lockdown to curtail the spread. People had to stop and step off their accustomed and busy lifestyle sall of a sudden, and depend on their mobile phones with internet, progressively, for work, education, entertainment, information, etc. besides toget in touch with each other, with regard to the Covid lockdown (Brindha, Jayaseelan and Kadeswaran; 2020). Most of the universities and institutes across the country officially called on their faculty members to engage students with online teaching, owing to the confinement. Until a few weeks back, mobile phone had restrictions to be used in classrooms and colleges, and now suddenly, colleges and classrooms are restricted to mobile phones. This scenario has paved way for this research, as an attempt to examine how medical college students learn through mobile phones before and during the Covid-19 lockdown.
