In view of the governments' efforts to provide education online as the situation is not yet conducive to open the schools and colleges with an ever rising covid-19 cases across the country, Child Rights & You<\/a> (CRY) conducted the survey to find the students' preparedness for the digital classroom.
The survey was conducted during May and June when the world had seen the peaks of the pandemic with lakhs of virus infected cases and thousands of deaths in India.
As some hardware such as a computer, laptop, tab or smartphone is an essential requirement for a student to receive online education<\/a>, the survey focused on the availability of smartphones and internet connectivity in four south Indian states.
The study covering 5,987 children in the age-group of 11-18 in Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana found that merely less than 9 percent of the respondents own a smartphone.
A technologically progressive state of Karnataka is at the top with 9 percent of the 1,145 respondents answering in positive. In Tamil Nadu only 3 percent of the 1,740 children participating had access to smartphones.
The study also revealed that the annual income of 95 percent of the families of all the students is less than Rs 1 lakh. \"Without substantial resources and with bare minimum affordability, having a smartphone is a luxury that more than two-thirds of these families can only hope for,\" the study said.
While 6 percent of the children have a smartphone, 29 per cent use their family members’ phones. Further, 55 percent of the children interviewed get access to smartphones for three days a week or less, while 77 percent get access to smartphones for less than two hours a day.
Releasing the survey findings, regional director, CRY South Karthik Narayanan<\/a> said that it was clear that children from marginalised sections of society are becoming more vulnerable, especially in these times of pandemic.
\"Education is the key to ensure a protective environment for children. Going to school not only sharpens a child's mind but also buys crucial time in their lives from being drawn into child marriage or child labour. With conventional education becoming difficult and online education being accessible to only a few, the children from the marginalised sections are becoming more vulnerable than ever before,\" he said.
