Overcoming Learning Challenges Associated with Covid 19 Pandemic Using PWA Development Approach

The educational sector is now faced with the reality that online learning is inevitable as with the outbreak of Covid-19 which broke out in the year 2019. Countries were affected by this pandemic as the economy crumbled due to the enforcement of the lockdown as advised by the World Health Organization (WHO). The educational sector was not immune from the adverse effects brought about by the Covid-19 pandemic. While some educational institutions were able to carry on with learning online, some institutions remained shut down thereby disrupting the academic schedule and timelines. After identifying the major setbacks and impact of the Covid-19 within the educational sector, an e-learning PWA model was proposed. A critical review to solidify the arguments for the PWA technology was carried out. The adoption of this model will allow e-learning applications to run on computers of any operating system as well as mobile or smartphones of any platform, the proposed model will also ease the development of e-learning applications and facilitate learning especially for students in remote areas.
