The recently introduced midterm public examination for standard X led to a spurt of tests to help students prepare. Analysis of two case studies and data collected by the investigator from teachers and parents regarding online pedagogy and the effect on children when compared with opinions of Neuroscientists on brain development, gave a grim picture. The excessive demand on students, sans play and socialization in fact, led to a rise in mental health related issues. The findings from the inquiry underscores the need to re-think compelled online pedagogy which borders on child abuse. It is hoped that the findings of the study would prompt educators and curriculum developers to refine online pedagogic practices.
