Abstrakt: Digital technology has served people for educative purposes and formation of virtual social connections for the co‐existence of human relationships amid the COVID‐19 pandemic. This article presents the socio‐educational implications of the newly‐formed virtual relations made possible through technology. It explores the use of emerging technologies and the effect of these technologies to fulfill the social and educational needs of the stakeholders in times of a crisis or emergency. The use of emerging technologies paved the way for the stakeholders to establish virtual relationships with a common goal to rid quarantine boredom, provide relief efforts, and educate the virtual community relative to COVID‐19 while maintaining a safe environment. The authors recommend for an empirical research on the newly‐existing online group relationships and how these virtual relationships and emerging technologies can affect social relations and human learning behaviors.
