Approaches to E-Learning Pedagogy

Abstract

The advent of Industry 4.0, bringing in technological innovations, is taking the teaching-learning process to the level of eteaching and elearning. Post pandemic, it is observed that students are getting disconnected from the chalk and talk method and being drawn to other sources of learning (YouTube) for their education requirements. The humongous information available on the internet is drawing attention of learners. The current lecture-based education does not ensure sufficient student engagement and is seemingly a one-way process. Syllabus being pre-defined, teaching gets disconnected from real-life problems. The focus requires creating an effective epedagogy. Educationists, universities, and governments across the globe are primarily focusing on the sector as the elearning market, which was $165.36 billion in 2014 and is forecast to grow to $3255 billion by 2025, according to statistics from Forbes. This chapter attempts to analyse approaches to elearning pedagogy through various literature.
