This module has been designed to train the faculty of technical
institutions in use of virtual education and assessment approaches to effective
learning. Not
all faculty members are comfortable with virtual classrooms and there is a
digital divide among those who have never used even the basic audio-visual
equipment, relying mainly on chalkboard and flipcharts, and younger faculty who
are aware of and adept at using newer technology. It is in this context that the present module
has been designed. The module will develop requisite knowledge, skills and
attitudes amongst faculty to provide virtual education to students and effectively
assess their performance online.
