Digitalization Of Teaching Learning During Pandemic: Emerging Opportunities In Post Pandemic Era

Acquiring ICT infrastructure, digitalizing the off-line content, adopting synchronous/ asynchronous/ blended learning and implementing online assessments were some of the prevalently observed trends during the pandemic. The state of continuation of these trends and the opportunities they created in post pandemic time are still unexplored completely in Indian higher education. This study aims to address this gap by conducting semi-structured interviews with academics from 13 Management institutes. Thematic Analysis was used to explore faculty impressions. Findings indicate that post-pandemic, online classes persist as needed, and some institutes sustain the utilization of ICT infrastructure for teaching and administrative tasks. Despite challenges, the study uncovers several opportunities stemmed from the continuation of these trends.
