Online Merriam Webster defines it as "Connected through a computer or telecommunication".
Following corona crisis, every means of communication/ interaction is online and so was/ is education presently. Indian government has taken initiatives and introduced e-learning platforms for under graduates and post graduates. By, these platforms students can learn and teachers can teach through teaching learning process.
Their are 8 e-Learning platforms 1)  Swayam 2) Diksha 3) e-PG pathshala 4) Swayam prabha 5) National Digital Laboratory of India (NDLI) 6) E-ShosdhSindhu 7) National Programme on Technology Enhanced Learning (NPTEL) and 8) Virtual labs. An initiative by government of India.

These are useful platforms not only for undergraduates but also for post-graduates. 
However online learning or e-Learning comes with its own pros and cons. It is considered as student centered technique in teaching learning process, teachers can be creative while they teach, such a concept is very interactive, in limited time high amount of information can be shared with students etc etc. But online learning can never replace conventional classroom teaching learning experience. In a classroom teaching use of chalk and boards, models and charts makes whole session interesting interactive and activity based. It leaves an impact on the students and remains in the memory for long period. Unlike online learning wherein everything is virtual, imaginary and superficial. I am not saying e-Learning is bad but it can't be ultimate. Not every student can adjust with online teaching or online classes since they differ in their IQ or tech friendly habit or accessibility to internet etc.
Therefore, it will be always debatable whether or not e-Learning could be ultimate or just an option to be adhered during crisis period.

Educators must also educate students on how to locate and utilize information. Education transmits societal, national, and global information from generation to generation. Education, in particular, aids and guides people in their transition from one social class to the next.
