Pivoting teaching-learning methods during COVID-19

We survey 4162 parents across five rural districts in Jharkhand—Bokaro, Dhanbad, Purbi Singhbhum, Ramgarh, and Ranchi—and evaluate the learning levels of their wards. Through these surveys, we aim to examine three research questions: i) What are the different types of service providers in the K-12 sector in Jharkhand and how, as per the parents surveyed, did these schools pivot during the pandemic? (ii) How did parents perceive the pivoted services availed by their children? (iii) What were the students' learning outcome levels post-COVID? The data was collected between August and September 2022. Note: personally identifiable data such as name, mobile number, and geo-coordinates have been removed to maintain anonymity. A separate code-book has been attached with the full data-set.
