Refrigerator tray for online class

COVID-19 forced,  schools and colleges to conduct classes online. But, all teachers are not comfortable with using technology at their disposal to hold virtual classes. Some of them have to even take innovative ways to impart learning to their students. A photo of one such teacher who resorted to a creative way to conduct class went viral on social media.  The picture shows the teacher taking online lectures with her smartphone placed on a translucent refrigerator tray. She is seen solving problems on a sheet which is kept below the tray resting on two containers. Posting the image on Twitter, a user wrote, “A teacher using a refrigerator tray to teach online.”

Makeshift tripod

Pune-based Chemistry teacher Moumita B did not have a tripod, so she went an extra mile to ensure that she could teach her students properly. She came up with an amazing jugaad and created a makeshift tripod using a chair, cloth hanger and cloth pieces. One look at the picture and you would be immensely impressed with her amazing hack. Indian Forest Service (IFS) officer Sudha Ramen shared the image that showed Moumita teaching her students via a video call. It also gave a glimpse of her 'jugaad' tripod.

Automatic pani puri machine

Pani puri is among such street food items which unexplainably turns tastier when eaten from a street stall - something many wouldn’t be comfortable doing given the current situation. That’s probably why this video of an ‘automatic pani puri’ machine has caught the attention of tweeple. IAS officer Awanish Sharan has shared a video on Twitter which shows this machine being used in Raipur, Chhattisgarh. “Automatic Panipuri with Telibandha Raipur. Awesome jugaad,” he wrote while sharing the video. The video shows the machine which uses sensors to prompt the flow of the flavoured water across different nozzles. One can choose which flavour they’d like. Watch the video to see this machine being used: 

Milk pipe and funnel 

A milkman went viral for his jugaad to deliver milk with minimum contact. He was photographed using a delivery system put together with a pipe and funnel to deliver milk to a customer.

Steam iron to disinfect cheques

A  video from a branch of Bank of Baroda in Gujarat has surfaced on the internet. In the video, a cashier can be seen using a steam iron to disinfect a cheque. The clip shows a man handing over a cheque to the cashier through a window. The banker, who is seen wearing a mask and hand gloves, collects the cheque using a tong. Sounds bizarre? Well, there is more to it. He puts the cheque on his table and then runs a steam iron over it in an effort to disinfect the virus.Anand Mahindra shared this clip with the caption, "In my #whatsappwonderbox I have no idea if the cashier's technique is effective but you have to give him credit for his creativity."
