Abstract
The current requirement of online teaching methodology adopted by teachers, students and other educational institutes in COVID-19 pandemic situation has resulted in drastic change in imparting education. It has certain significant advantages and disadvantages over offline teaching and learning modes. Moreover, conduction of online webinars, orientation courses, Ph D presentations of scholars and virtual conferences for the first time during this pandemic stage had made a requirement for its comparison with real and offline education scenario. Our present study deals with analyzing positive and negative impacts of these online-offline modes on teachers, learners and other education systems. Online mode has made approaching each other fast and easy, with no travelling time, no travelling allowances and comfortable access. However, it lacks the professional environment and its technical dependence makes it comparatively less interesting and interactive as compared to offline modes. Online mode has made accessible sharing of views, organizing invited talks, conducting PhD seminars and evaluations from distant areas speakers, examiners and invited talks through video-audio mode easily. But on account of virtual mode of interaction, appropriate eye to eye contact with each other, simultaneous management of sharing documents and presenting views becomes difficult. Our study is based on analysis of online classes, presentations, webinars and PhD defending done by Panjab University, Chandigarh staff and students during COVID-19 pandemic scenario. These experiences have been interviewed by Panjab University staff, teachers, research scholars and students. Their viewpoints have been taken regarding their varied responses towards online and offline teaching and presentation modes.
