In the current situations, the COVID-19 a virus disease named Corona is continuously enhancing its circumstances globally. To avoid public gatherings the government of India and especially Gujarat has taken some of the precautive steps like shut down the universities and schools etc. The side effect of that is, the huge loss to the education system to discontinuing the lessons and exams and because of that students can forgetting major parts or maybe don't get help in other parts.

Here my university had taken the step to get out of this big issue and save a lot of time of students from getting waste. R K University had started to take lectures online via video meetings and by that students can learn and continually take part in the further syllabus via using advance technology.

I had attended today's lecture which was Kinematics of the Machine was conducted by Mr. Viral Mevcha. It was a quite good experience to learn online. It was also taken yesterday of Design Thinking that was conducted by Dr. Chetankumar Patel. The session was informative as the direct classroom learning and also time-saving and risk-free due to not getting my self into any circumstances of Corona. Here I'm sharing today's lecture's
screenshot where I had a good learning time.

The session was conducted on the Zoom platform that is having nice features for a professional meeting. Anyone can use this plateform for this kind of purposes. Well, I recommend everyone to use it.



okay, let us wrap it up, finally, I can now learn directly from my laptop screen and my phone from my own university professors. the experience was nice and it will be continued.
