Take the German route

Max Mueller Bhavan Mumbai started a "blended learning course" in November 2019, where 50 per cent of their language courses are conducted in classrooms, and the rest are held online. This has now held them in good stead since they had the requisite knowhow to shift the entire module online post the lockdown. They also had special online-only courses earlier, conducted by MMB Kolkata, and that knowhow, too, is coming to additional use right now. Mukta Gadkari, course coordinator of the language department, tells us, "We are conducting the live online courses via Adobe Connect, but are planning to try out the Zoom app today to see which platform is better."
