Chief minister Bhupesh Baghel on Friday     inaugurated an online    education facility for college students on the state education department’s  e-education portal: cgschool.in.

The cgschool.in portal was launched for  school children and the state      government has updated the portal to include online education facility for college students now, an official release said.

As colleges too are closed during the lockdown to prevent the spread of coronavirus, the state      government has postponed examinations at all levels, the release said.

After the lockdown is over, conducting pending exams and continuing with the next academic session will be challenging, so keeping that in view,  the online teaching and learning    facility has been launched for college and school students on cgschool.in, it said.

On the portal, PDF study material, audio and video lessons as per the graduation curriculum have been uploaded, the release added.

In the near future, study material for post-graduation curriculum will also be uploaded, it said.

College professors registered with the portal will be able to upload subject-wise lesson videos, which registered college students will be able to utilize.

At present, 32,314     students and 3,385           professors are registered on the portal, the release said and added that 1,241 videos, 280 course          materials, 18 audio files and 137 photo uploads are   available as study material.
