Study hours of students in the country have declined by 80 percent due to school closure, said a survey report of BRAC Institute of Governance and Development. Since schools closed, the total time students spend studying reduced from 10 hours to 2 hours a day, said BIGD, an affiliated body of BRAC University. BIGD presented the survey outcomes in a webinar yesterday, said a press release. A team of researchers surveyed over 5,000 students from urban slums and rural areas across Bangladesh to learn how children are coping with school closure and if “remedial measures” of virtual learning are working, said the release.
