Abstract
The term 'ergonomics' and 'human factors' are interchangeable, 'ergonomics' is generally used in regard to physical features of the workplace, such as workstations and control panels, whilst 'human factors' is generally used in regard to the larger system in which people co-operate. This COVID 19 pandemic impact make the children to stay at home only and government of India has been supported the online education for the children and because of that change the whole learning system in India. While attending the classes at home mostly the parents don’t have that much knowledge regarding ergonomics to prevent the lot of physical as well as mental health problems, impact of poor ergonomics kids faced lot of problems like headache, back pain, knee pain, eye irritation etc as we called as repetitive strain injuries and musculoskeletal health has been deteriorated.
 Conclusion: Parents and teachers do not appear to involve schoolchildren in conversations about safe computing behaviors, which might be due to their own lack of understanding of computer ergonomics and also the impact of COVID 19 Pandemic drastically affect the children’s schooling and have to learn at home through the online education system. Ergonomic education should also include into the school curriculum as future necessity.

Summary
Due to COVID-19, 55 million students are homeschooling, with projections that this will continue for a long period. Children are using the Internet for longer periods of time, mobile devices and tabs to do their work. [3] Humans spent much of their time either moving or resting; sitting came later.

Welcoming classrooms for children and adolescents throughout adolescence this difference is important because crucial in terms of comfort at these times the youngster to sit [6]. Future interventions should focus on macro ergonomics to instil knowledge about safe computing habits, and develop strategies to design classrooms that promote positive attitudes toward healthy computing behaviors and empower school children to selfmanage their physical health [9]
