“…This shift has prompted a reforming, restructuring and re-aligning of traditional face-to-face classroom instruction in favor of more efficient and cost-effective system utilising online educational delivery systems. The widespread application of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) has played a pivotal role in this transformation, leading to a shift from the traditional mode of learning to online or blended learning (Kukulska-Hume, 2012; Lee and McLoughlin, 2011; Upton, 2005) [14,15,24] . The progress and development of ICTs and its ever-increasing integration in education sector are acknowledged as positive elements of change in higher education, with internet and network technology platforms being extensively integrated into the education sector (Hawkins 2005, Jackson et al 2004, Newpher 2006) [10,11,20] .…”

The education landscape in India is undergoing massive transformation due to rapid advances in Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and its increasing integration in education sector in India. It has transformed the way education services are planned, structured and delivered to the masses. The Corona pandemic has, per force, accelerated the use of ICTs in education sector and brought to center stage the concepts such as online education or e-learning. The present study was carried out to find out the attitude of Undergraduate students towards online education and the factors affecting it at a premier Agriculture University in North India. Using exploratory research design, the study sample comprised of 185 respondents selected using stratified random sampling method, and the data was collected using a pre-tested questionnaire which was e-mailed to the selected respondents. The study findings revealed that a majority of the respondents displayed a 'neutral to positive' attitude towards online education. Further, age, academic performance, family education status, Annual family income, Family size, Technology readiness, and Application skills were found to be the major factors that affected attitude towards online education. The value of Coefficient of determination, i.e. R2 (0.5729) reiterated that all the independent variables contributed 57.29% variation in the dependent variable. Hence, concerted efforts have to be made by the policy makers, administrators, and academicians concerned to make the necessary improvements in planning, implementing and strengthening online education strategies.

“…Participatory culture (Jenkins et al, 2009) and the concept of connective intelligence (Siemens, 2005), are the foundations of many didactic initiatives based on Pedagogy 2.0 methods (McLoughlin and Lee, 2011). It has been widely demonstrated how the use of social networks, blogs and Wiki calls on the reprocessing and metacognitive dimensions implied in learning processes (Dickey, 2004;Deng, Yuen, 2009; and leads to critical and further study activities.…”

The main focus of this work is on didactic planning (in high schools) with a special emphasis on the following topics: the use of problem-solving and social media in a course centered on scientific knowledge, participatory and collaborative activities, on and off line, the paradigms of collective intelligence (), and connective intelligence (, ) and technical skills. The work methodology includes the creation of an integrated educational environment functional to the promotion of process-based learning for the presence of learning practices in the formal didactic setting taken from non-formal or informal contexts, as suggested by Luciano . The leading hypothesis of the work is concerned with the participatory practices (production-sharing-socialization) which are used in a structured learning context and on their effects: a) to increase the degree of interest and involvement of the students and, b) to have a positive effect on subject knowledge (learning history), and cross-curricular knowledge (responsible use of technologies).

“…Education increasingly relies on technology, and vast amounts of data about student activities are available in the academic environment. Records of student activities, ratings, and interactions with teachers and other students are now collected from learning management systems (LMS), including Blackboard and Moodle (Lee & McLoughlin, 2010;Raghavjee et al, 2021). HEIs are starting to be more informed of the possibility of monitoring LMS data to improve teaching and learning quality (Miguéis et al, 2018;Pelletier et al, 2021).…”
