The Covid-19 pandemic caused a great deal of fear among people all across the world, and the education sector was no exception. In particular for the educational institutions that were entirely offline, this caused a fast, drastic shift from "brick and mortar" to online instruction. The current research study compares face-to-face instruction to online instruction to understand the students' perspectives. Graduate students (UG & PG) from particular educational institutions in Hyderabad were asked to fill out a Google form survey questionnaire in order to obtain primary data. As a result, the current study also assessed how satisfied students were with their performance on numerous metrics, such as their acquisition of graduate-level competencies, which include knowledge, abilities, and behaviour.
The Adoption of Online Teaching and Learning strategy in Tertiary Learning In...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT:The teaching and learning process has been a big revolution since Corona Virus Disease 19
(COVID-19) has spread out to the world. This paper assessed adoption of Online Teaching and Learning in the
Midst of COVID-19 in Tertiary Learning Institutions in Tanzania. Specifically, the study examined readiness
level of students and teachers on the practices of online teaching and learning strategy during COVID-19 and
lock down; the attitude of students towards online teaching and learning; and online teaching and learning
facilities in Tertiary Learning Institutions in Tanzania. A case study research design was adopted while a sample
of 87 respondents was selected using judgemental sampling technique. Data was collected through a
questionnaire tool while descriptive statistics was used for data analysis. The findings revealed that57.5% of
students were ready to learn though online services. On other hand the findings revealed that college
management and staff were not ready to adopt online teaching and learning strategy. The reluctant of staffs
were caused by inadequate online learning resources, incapability of staff, and absence of policies and
guidelines issued by government on application of online teaching and learning programs. The study concludes
that although there was high degree of readiness of students and internet accessibility, the adoption of online
teaching and learning strategy was impossible due to inadequate facilities. Therefore, the study recommend to
the government to establish and issue the policies and guidelines about the application of online teaching and
learning technologies.

THE OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES OF LEARNING ONLINE DURING THE PANDEMIC: THAI...ijejournal
This paper investigates students' online learning experience during COVID-19, specifically aiming to
identify points of improvement within the current distance-learning infrastructure in Thailand. The
research consolidates students ’opinions toward online learning, their ease in adapting to the new learning
environment, which depends not only on each student's learning style but also on their teachers as well as
social and economic factors. Identifying the advantages and disadvantages of learning from home, the
research presents students' needs and suggestions for improvement. As such, this work may guide future
adjustments to online learning.
This research is based on the problem of the outbreak of the coronavirus
which has become a global pandemic and a national disaster. The purpose of
this study was to describe the perceptions of lecturers and students on online
learning problems during the COVID-19 pandemic. The data was collected
with the help of questionnaires. This quantitative descriptive study was
conducted among lectures and students who selectedd randomly. Data
analysis used a Likert scale and the results of perceptions used descriptive
analysis. The results of the study show that the perceptions of lecturers and
students on online learning problems during the pandemic consisted of six
aspects (lecture plans, online lecture activities, online lecture recording and
evaluation, lecture assistance services, and lecture support facilities).
Furthermore, it can be agreed that effective online learning occurs due to the
interaction of students and lecturers as well as technology connected
to education.

Abstract: In many learning places, online learning has become the new normal with the major aim of averting the
Covid-19 pandemic effects. Besides, the e-learning benefits can help mitigate the effects of conventionalism and
deferment in education institutions and foster the development of student's critical thinking skills as would be
anticipated in traditional residential practices if exploited effectively. Even though research myriads have proved
that it is a student-and-action-based model that has the potential to accomplish optimal education and learning
outcomes when applied successfully, online learning more often than not has been criticized for being unable to
engage learners amply. Understandably, in residential systems, teaching learners to develop critical thinking skills
has been challenging because it needs the physical presence of students and faculty to participate in the analyses
and syntheses of complex concepts for applications, clarity and better assimilations. To successfully apply the same
in an e-learning setting will need augmented knowledge in the subject matters as well as knowledge in the elearning dynamics, including applications of germane instructional strategies, contexts and influential theories.

The 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic outbreak has changed
the conventional learning system to an online learning system. Online
learning system is an alternative that can solve this problem with the
principles of human-machine friendship learning (HMFL). This research was
conducted to obtain an overview of the implementation of human-machine
Friendship learning at IKIP PGRI Pontianak, Indonesia. Lecturers and
students become research subjects, especially those in the History Education
Study Program of the IKIP PGRI Pontianak. The research employed a
qualitative approach with the type of phenomenological research. Data
collection in this research was carried out by survey, interview and
documentation. The results showed: (1) Implementation of HMFL of History
Education Study Program of FIPPS IKIP PGRI Pontianak as a solution for
implementing learning; (2) Effectiveness of Human-Machine Friendship
Learning which is carried out in an effort to break the chain of the spread of
COVID-19 using the application as a whole, students are satisfied with
flexible learning; (3) The challenges of implementing HMFL include the
weak supervision and control of students, the problem of weak internet
signals, especially in rural areas, and the relatively high cost of internet
quota.

According to the study of Korir, D. and Kipkemboi F. (2014), School as a second home has a solid relationship to the academic performance of the students. However, because of the pandemic, home seems to become the second School of the students, affecting their study habits. Thus, this study was conducted to determine the factors that affect the students' study habits at the tertiary level using remote learning mode of education. The study used a descriptive-quantitative research design, and a self-made questionnaire is a primary tool in gathering data. Simple statistical tools were used to interpret the data. A total of 375 students from Nueva Ecija University of Science and Technology – San Isidro Campus, San Isidro Nueva Ecija, Philippines 3106 are the study respondents. The results show that students used their free time to study, and most of them use 2 hours and above to study, which shows why most students are able to cope with the current education model. It also shows that the students' environment dramatically affects the study habits of the students, thus, another reason why most students are struggling to survive in their online/remote learning mode of education.

The COVID 19 pandemic has not only affected higher education on a global scale, but it has also brought numerous challenges to the higher education community. Remote learning refers to situations where learners and lecturers or information sources, separated by time and distance, and therefore cannot meet their needs in a traditional classroom environment. It can encompass a wide variety of learning opportunities. This could include exploring the natural world, activities to support students’ local communities with appropriate social distancing , and engaging in hands on projects and artistic creations that stem from students’ passions and experiences. The purpose of the study is to emphasize the benefits and impact of remote learning on higher education. The research method of this study used the second hand data listed in different databases of books, research papers and related articles on remote learning and higher education on the Internet. The research results of the paper show that higher education in India lacks challenges in terms of declining institutional income and national budget cuts, deterioration of financial conditions among students, quality problems of remote learning, and inefficient credit transfers. The study also reports on various opportunities for higher education. Researchers have found that remote learning can help promote flexible schedules. Learn important skills enhance technical knowledge a safer and more accessible environment a world full of possibilities walk your own way and build long remote friendships. Higher education institutions need to improve their quality and reputation. Colleges and universities should have good infrastructure to attract students. The government must promote cooperation between Indian higher education institutions and top international institutions. It can also establish links between national research laboratories and research centers of top institutions to improve quality and conduct collaborative research.

Abstract: This paper provides a literature overview of the increasing importance of online learning across all modes of instruction, whether they take place in higher education, school-based or informal education. It then moves to discussing the current situation regarding the Australian university sector and then provides an example of the same subject offered in a School of Education across four different modes – two being face to face and two by distance. The modes are reviewed to examine the use of online learning with the common subject and assessment being the control.
The present study emphasizes the global impact of the e-learning process during COVID 19. The implementation of lockdown and social distancing has been enforced as one of the preventive measures to spread the coronavirus infection which has resulted in complete paralysis of global activities. Especially the education system which is completely shut and to proceed with the academic curriculum, there is a shift from the regular learning process to electronic learning. This can be cited with an increased number of online classes, conferences, meetings, etc. It can be noted that the world is completely dependent on information technologies during this crisis. Hence, the present study provides an insight into the process of electronic learning and its advantages along with the updated version of its usage. To best of our knowledge, there have been scanty scientific reports on this particular situation of the impact of e-learning during COVID 19.

Experiences of University Students with E Learning for Teacher Preparation du...ijtsrd
E Learning was adopted by most universities and colleges worldwide to provide students with ongoing education during the COVID 19 pandemic and is here to last even after the pandemic is over. This study sought to explore the experiences of the students at a higher education institution in Eswatini during the COVID 19 pandemic. The study was based on the following objectives Establish the experiences of higher education students in e learning during the period of COVID 19, determine the challenges faced by the students in e learning during the period of COVID 19 and recommend how e learning may be sustained even after the pandemic. The study was underpinned by the diffusion of innovation theory and was located in the interpretivist research paradigm which followed a qualitative research approach where a phenomenological research design was applied. The study conveniently selected a sample of fifteen 15 fourth year students doing teacher education at a university in Eswatini. Data was analysed using thematic analysis. The findings of the study reveal that e learning was the most appropriate teaching and learning process during the COVID 19 pandemic and has benefits that make it sustainable after COVID 19. This study concludes that students are able to learn at the comfort of their homes due to the flexible nature of e learning. However, despite the positive impact of e learning there are some challenges students face which include limited physical contact and collaboration. The University should try by all means to provide the students with tools for effective teaching and learning. Based on the findings and conclusions, the study recommends that students should be provided with digital tools, trained adequately and get constant updates of software features. The study also recommends that for e learning to be sustained even after the pandemic the university should provide modern technology tools and keep updating the software as well as widen the internet broadband for effective teaching and learning.

Living in 21st century in itself reminds all of us the necessity of police and its administration. As more and more we are entering into the modern society and culture, the more we require the services of the so called ‘Khaki Worthy’ men i.e., the police personnel. Whether we talk of Indian police or the other nation’s police, they all have the same recognition as they have in India. But as already mentioned, their services and requirements are different after the like 26th November, 2008 incidents, where they without saving their own lives has sacrificed themselves without any hitch and without caring about their respective family members and wards. In other words, they are like our heroes and mentors who can guide us from the darkness of fear, militancy, corruption and other dark sides of life and so on. Now the question arises, if Gandhi would have been alive today, what would have been his reaction/opinion to the police and its functioning? Would he have some thing different in his mind now what he had been in his mind before the partition or would he be going to start some Satyagraha in the form of some improvement in the functioning of the police administration? Really these questions or rather night mares can come to any one’s mind, when there is too much confusion is prevailing in our minds, when there is too much corruption in the society and when the polices working is also in the questioning because of one or the other case throughout the India. It is matter of great concern that we have to thing over our administration and our practical approach because the police personals are also like us, they are part and parcel of our society and among one of us, so why we all are pin pointing towards them.

ROLE OF SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP IN RURAL DEVELOPMENT OF INDIA - PROBLEMS AND ...IAEME Publication
The majority of the population in India lives in villages. The village is the back bone of the country. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Developing the rural economy is one of the key indicators towards a country’s success. Whether it be the need to look after the welfare of the farmers or invest in rural infrastructure, Governments have to ensure that rural development isn’t compromised. The economic development of our country largely depends on the progress of rural areas and the standard of living of rural masses. Village or rural industries play an important role in the national economy, particularly in the rural development. Rural entrepreneurship is based on stimulating local entrepreneurial talent and the subsequent growth of indigenous enterprises. It recognizes opportunity in the rural areas and accelerates a unique blend of resources either inside or outside of agriculture. Rural entrepreneurship brings an economic value to the rural sector by creating new methods of production, new markets, new products and generate employment opportunities thereby ensuring continuous rural development. Social Entrepreneurship has the direct and primary objective of serving the society along with the earning profits. So, social entrepreneurship is different from the economic entrepreneurship as its basic objective is not to earn profits but for providing innovative solutions to meet the society needs which are not taken care by majority of the entrepreneurs as they are in the business for profit making as a sole objective. So, the Social Entrepreneurs have the huge growth potential particularly in the developing countries like India where we have huge societal disparities in terms of the financial positions of the population. Still 22 percent of the Indian population is below the poverty line and also there is disparity among the rural & urban population in terms of families living under BPL. 25.7 percent of the rural population & 13.7 percent of the urban population is under BPL which clearly shows the disparity of the poor people in the rural and urban areas. The need to develop social entrepreneurship in agriculture is dictated by a large number of social problems. Such problems include low living standards, unemployment, and social tension. The reasons that led to the emergence of the practice of social entrepreneurship are the above factors. The research problem lays upon disclosing the importance of role of social entrepreneurship in rural development of India. The paper the tendencies of social entrepreneurship in India, to present successful examples of such business for providing recommendations how to improve situation in rural areas in terms of social entrepreneurship development. Indian government has made some steps towards development of social enterprises, social entrepreneurship, and social in- novation, but a lot remains to be improved.
OPTIMAL RECONFIGURATION OF POWER DISTRIBUTION RADIAL NETWORK USING HYBRID MET...IAEME Publication
Distribution system is a critical link between the electric power distributor and the consumers. Most of the distribution networks commonly used by the electric utility is the radial distribution network. However in this type of network, it has technical issues such as enormous power losses which affect the quality of the supply. Nowadays, the introduction of Distributed Generation (DG) units in the system help improve and support the voltage profile of the network as well as the performance of the system components through power loss mitigation. In this study network reconfiguration was done using two meta-heuristic algorithms Particle Swarm Optimization and Gravitational Search Algorithm (PSO-GSA) to enhance power quality and voltage profile in the system when simultaneously applied with the DG units. Backward/Forward Sweep Method was used in the load flow analysis and simulated using the MATLAB program. Five cases were considered in the Reconfiguration based on the contribution of DG units. The proposed method was tested using IEEE 33 bus system. Based on the results, there was a voltage profile improvement in the system from 0.9038 p.u. to 0.9594 p.u.. The integration of DG in the network also reduced power losses from 210.98 kW to 69.3963 kW. Simulated results are drawn to show the performance of each case.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2. A Study on the Effect of Online Teaching in Higher Education
https://iaeme.com/Home/journal/IJARET 2035 editor@iaeme.com
Classes and in-person exams were cancelled as a result of the national lockdown. The
educational institutions were initially perplexed and unsure of how to handle the issue in March.
The educators and institutions were forced to seize the chances that were presented by this
abrupt catastrophe. Although initially, educational institutions lacked the necessary information
technology infrastructure to link students online, Covid gave them the chance to improve that
infrastructure (Pravat, 2020a).
The majority of the pupils were raised in regular classrooms with face-to-face
instruction and learning. The contemporary educational institutions are dealing with a new
challenge in the form of online learning. The majority of educational institutions across
the nation were not fully prepared for this abrupt, severe transition. Online instruction has
abruptly replaced face-to-face instruction in educational institutions. A learner and an
instructor can interact in real time when they are teaching and learning face-to-face.
Singh and Thurman (2019) also mentioned that online learning has learning
experiences which are either in synchronous or asynchronous environments by using
different devices like mobile phones, desktops, laptops, etc. with internet access. Online
teaching occurs when the content is delivered via internet and platforms using google meet,
Zoom, etc.
With the aforementioned as a backdrop, the researcher delved into the following study questions
to comprehend from the viewpoint of the students.
1. How can a disturbance in the way the course material is delivered be handled?
2. How do students view online instruction in comparison to face-to-face instruction?
3. Can the graduate characteristics be attained through online learning more successfully than
through in-person instruction?
This article compares the effectiveness of face-to-face instruction against that of online
instruction. A thorough study of the literature is conducted to comprehend graduate
characteristics, with an emphasis on outcome-based education, studies of online and in-person
instruction, and the difficulties that previous researchers have examined. The study also
summarises theoretical and empirical data on the effectiveness of online instruction in
comparison to in-person instruction.
The following describes the structure of the current research project. First, a backgrounder
on the pandemic's effects on the education sector, ideas on online and in-person instruction, and
research questions are provided. The second is a review of the literature on online and in-person
instruction. The third section outlines the research methodology and provides information on
the methods and tools that were utilised to collect and analyse the data. The study's discussion
and results were presented in the fourth section. The conclusion, which summarises the findings
and suggests future study directions, brings the essay to a close.
2. LITERATURE REVIEW
The goal of outcome-based education (OBE) is to provide learning experiences that result in
particular learning objectives or course outcomes. It directly contributes to the improvement of
a student's proficiency in a certain knowledge, skill, or behaviour. According to Spady (1994),
the OBE curriculum provides students with a clear image of the learning goals that are crucial.
Curriculum, instruction, and evaluation should then be coordinated to ensure that learning
ultimately takes place.
Any teaching and learning exercise should provide learning results, which should then
produce attainment of programme outcomes or graduate qualities, which, in turn, produces
employability skills. Whether instruction takes place online or in person, the end result should
3. K. Kalaichelvi

be the development of employable skills. Therefore, the student's employability serves as a
gauge of a teacher's efficacy.
Early distant learning approaches, according to Lauzon (1992), were based more on issues
that touch on education than learning. The integration of digital and telecommunication
technology has significantly boosted the popularity and accessibility of distance learning.
One of these theories, Keegan's (1996), which concentrated more on how technology may
help students become more independent, was one of four such theories that Tebeaux (1995)
reviewed. The focus of this idea is on how teachers and students can be liberated from the
necessity of sharing a physical area.
The second theory examined that is comparable to Keegan's (1996) theory of distance
learning is Peters' (2002); it looks at how technological advancements have affected distance
learning. According to this view, technology will change the roles of teachers and students,
promoting more independent and autonomous learning. The function of the instructor will
resemble that of a facilitator or a guide who helps the students.
According to Wuensch et al (2008) .'s evaluation of the pedagogical aspects of the two
delivery methods, students perceive online lessons as being much more convenient and
allowing for self-paced learning than face-to-face instruction.
According to Berger et al. (2008), "blended learning," which combines the two learning
styles, is more relevant and gives teachers the tools they need to create and implement
successful mixed-mode programmes.
In their research, Song et al. (2004) and Parkes et al. (2014) noted that online teaching
presents a number of challenges for students, including technical difficulties with installation,
login issues, issues with audio/video, recording, etc., boredom and disengagement, a lack of
individualised attention, difficulties with interaction, difficulties juggling work, family, and
social commitments with their academic lives, and low levels of preparedness among students.
3. OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY
1. To examine and contrast the graduate characteristics attained through online and in-person
instruction from the viewpoint of the students
2. To assess which distribution method—online or offline—is more successful in producing the
graduate qualities.
3. Researching students' preferences for teaching styles from their point of view
4. To make recommendations in light of the research.
4. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
For the study, both primary and secondary data are gathered. Through the use of a structured
questionnaire and a three-point scale, primary data is gathered (high, medium & low).
Electronic resources are used to gather secondary data.
Chi-square and the paired t-test are used as tools for descriptive statistics and SPSS for
Windows 16.0's analysis of the data. The study used a sample size of 119 final-year
undergraduate BBA students and final-year MBA students from the two colleges in the twin
cities. The sample is taken using the convenience sampling approach.
5. DISCUSSION AND FINDINGS OF THE STUDY
The survey included 67.5 percent of undergraduate and 32.5 percent of graduate students in
their last years, with 56.3 percent females and 43.7 percent males. Ten parameters/graduate

qualities were collected for the study, including topic knowledge, acquired skills, and
behaviour.

From the above table, it can be shown that the students believed that online learning was
more effective than face-to-face instruction in achieving graduate characteristics.
Null Hypothesis (H0): Online and in-person accomplishments of competencies are independent
of one another.
Alternate Hypothesis (H1): The acquisition of skills online and the acquisition of skills in
person are interdependent.

Chi-Square was used with SPSS to carry out the aforementioned test. It is evident from the
preceding table that the P value =.388 is greater than the level of significance of = 0.05. The
null hypothesis is therefore accepted. It implies that skills acquired online and skills acquired
in person are independent of one another.

The percentage study also revealed that whereas just 6.7 percent of students believed that
the competencies they had acquired through online learning were high, 59.7 percent of students
said that the competencies they had acquired through face-to-face instruction.
H02: When comparing online and face-to-face instruction, there is no discernible difference in
the graduate qualities attained.
H12: The attainment of graduate qualities through online education versus face-to-face
instruction differs significantly.
The annexure shows ten pairs of factors that are used to assess how graduate attributes
(knowledge, skill, and abilities/behavior) affect employability skills. The null hypothesis is
rejected because, according to the T-test analysis in the annexure, the p significant value (0.00)
is less than 0.05. Thus, face-to-face instruction has a considerable impact on students'
attainment of graduate traits and competences, which in turn has an impact on employability
skills.
Graph 1 Mode of teaching preferred by students
According to the aforementioned graph, 61.3 percent of students prefer in-person
instruction, 9.2 percent prefer online learning, and 29.4 percent prefer hybrid learning.
6. SUGGESTIONS
The following are the suggestions from the study:
• Case studies can increase the effectiveness of hybrid and blended modes, depending on
which is most advantageous.
• In order to give high-quality content, instructors or educators must invest a lot of time
in devising successful teaching and learning methodologies.
• Make the sessions interactive to encourage students to participate more.
• The teachers might choose students at random and ask them to interact instead of always
providing a forum to them. • Appropriate e-material should be developed and shared
with the students.
• Groups can be formed in class to facilitate reciprocal learning, increase interaction,
and—most importantly—familiarize students with the material they will be studying.
• The usage of well-designed software tools that take into account the various mentalities
of a student can be used to give the instructor an idea of the tasks the student is
completing in class.

• To carry out subject-based activities to foster students' capacity for critical thought.
• Face-to-face engagement aids in developing a student's aptitude for research.
• By recording video lectures in advance and having a Plan B ready, technical issues can
be greatly reduced, allowing the teaching-learning process to go without interruption.
• Teachers should give students deadlines and reminders to keep them focused and aware
so they can finish their assignments on time.
• The best effort will be made to give each student individual attention and a personal
touch during the learning process.
• A variety of social media sites and forums for communicating with students.
7. CONCLUSION
The path to normal is through blended learning. Combining in-person instruction with online
learning will help students develop employability and attributed skills. Thus, during a
pandemic, highly technical teaching abilities are needed, and teaching and learning approaches
must be adjusted appropriately to engage the pupils. To create and deliver top-notch material,
professors must receive the appropriate training and upgrade their skills. To have an efficient
teaching-learning process, educational institutions also need to have a fully functioning learning
management system and a good recording studio. After a pandemic, blended learning may be
used. Every educational institution must therefore make significant efforts to ensure that
students graduate with the qualities that will improve their employability abilities.
