The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic is a stress test for the finance educators around the world. With students forced to stay home, finance educators are constantly on their toes to ensure that classes continue and that even the most vulnerable one is not left behind. As the cases of coronavirus (COVID-19) in India rose in early March 2020, more and more management institutes adopted to a virtual setting of teaching. This shift from traditional to online mode was sudden. Many different approaches are being taken by different institutes both domestically and internationally to learn from each other and make online teaching more engaging and effective for the students. The pandemic has brought all the finance educators together in sharing their experiences with virtual teaching and trying to adopt what suits them best given the infrastructure at their disposal.
