How Online Education Evolved Before the Internet

Did online education in India really begin with COVID? 👀 Not quite. Its story goes back to 1962, when the University of Delhi introduced correspondence courses to make education accessible to students who couldn’t reach a traditional classroom. From correspondence courses to Open and Distance Learning, IGNOU, digital education, and finally online learning, the technology kept changing, but the purpose remained the same: making education more accessible. In this video, we explore how education evolved from printed study material to digital classrooms, and how COVID-19 accelerated a transformation that was already underway. Because online education isn’t just a story about technology. It’s a story about access, flexibility, and reaching the learner.
