25.  Among e-skills current knowledge, Maximum knowledge
observed for
PowerPoint (rank 1), followed by
Email (rank 2),
Word processing (rank 3), and
Chat (rank 4)
were observed, where Minimum knowledge was found for
LCMS (rank 13),
Statistical Software (rank 12),
Graphic Software (Rank 11) and
Digital Cameras (ranks 10).

26. Findings
26
A non-significant difference was observed on
gender differentiation and
types of colleges revealed that there was a
non-significant difference between students in their
mean e-skills knowledge scores.
Analysis results showed that there is a significantly
difference among students studying in different subjects
(science / art / language) in their e-skills current
knowledge levels

27. DMRT revealed that those students studying in arts and languages
had least knowledge scores and those students who were studying in
Science stream had highest scores and language students in between

28. EDUCATIONAL IMPLICATIONS
Findings of this study reviled to students, faculty
members ,management of B.Ed. Colleges and educators
 to expand their own knowledge
 and proficiency in
 computer knowledge,
 e-skills,
 e-learning and
 Internet technologies
 and lead to more efficient utilization.

planning and
 Designing workshops and
 Intensive courses for faculty members, based on
demographic variables.

30. EDUCATIONAL IMPLICATIONS
The findings in the present dissertation could
also give Students
