During the COVID-19 pandemic, educational institutions have adopted digital technologies as a medium to share the knowledge and to connect with the students. The idea of learning and teaching has taken a huge turn and needs to be customized and made innovative since the technological era has stepped in. Although the educational information and knowledge are easily available over the internet, the fruitful gains of meaningful knowledge assimilation can only be achieved under the supervision of teachers/mentors. Taking this ideology forward, this paper presents pedagogical techniques to virtually connect with students leading to successful inculcation of the theoretical knowledge with practical wisdom unto the student’s mind. The pedagogical idea was exercised with school students studying from 6th to 12th grade. Initially, a teacher-student connect was established. Then, the students were pro-actively made to understand topics through self-apprehended practicals at home, keeping up with the age-old conventional environment so as to gradually ease them in the virtual technology. Practical and tasks that were carried out throughout the pedagogy played a major part in the development of mind with curiosity, questioning and constructivism, emphasizing on the weak points and strengthening their concepts in optics.
