General Studies · Course of Action

Read the given Course of Action (CoA) and the situations carefully. Decide which of the situations logically support the adoption of the Course of Action. Course of Action (CoA): Online education should be integrated into mainstream schooling systems to provide flexibility, accessibility, and equal learning opportunities, while addressing concerns of quality and screen dependency. Situation I: Students in rural areas often lack access to qualified teachers. Online education platforms are being made mandatory in government schools to bridge this gap, even though the internet infrastructure is weak. Situation II: Excessive screen time has been linked with health issues such as poor eyesight and reduced physical activity. The government restricts the number of hours students can spend on online learning platforms. Situation III: Elite schools are already using advanced e-learning platforms, while underfunded schools struggle with basic digital tools. The state provides subsidized access to online education resources to reduce inequality.
