Abstract
Education helps in acquiring knowledge, skills, and competencies required for the development of an individual. The outbreak of Covid-19 shut all the educational institutes worldwide. Under these circumstances, all the educational institutes switched to an online mode of education, considering it a viable option. This transition was an arduous task for both students and teachers. The situation was even more challenging for students from underprivileged communities whose dropout rates are always high, especially when they enter secondary schooling. The tribal group are called as Scheduled Tribes (ST) in India represents one such disadvantaged group. Even before the pandemic, the tribal students accounted for the highest number of dropouts at different levels of schooling. Undoubtedly, switching to an online mode of education was not an easy task for them. Now that the schools have started functioning regularly, it becomes an important task to understand the impact online education has on the learning level of students, especially from a tribal community. This exploratory study presents the thematic analysis of responses collected from fifty tribal students studying in a Secondary school dealing with their experience of education through online mode.
