The theoretical framework for the survey is derived from secondary sources such as research papers, newspaper articles, and magazine articles on the topic. ProQuest and EBSCO were used for this. The study combines exploratory and descriptive methods. The paper shows that the future of the online education is not sustainable; it is just a situational arrangement and soon will be replaced by the old, traditional offline pattern, if the situation allows.

This context entailed the transition from face-to-face to online learning environments, which was taken as an opportunity for the diffusion and socialization of outstanding research projects developed by undergraduate students within the classroom, through the launching of an online event and a virtual permanent exhibition. The results of this case study were measured through quantitative indicators related to the number of research projects submitted by the students for participating in this exhibition, the number of courses participating through these projects, and the number of professors involved. Participation of students and professors increased by 85% and 90%, respectively, comparing the online environment to the previous face-to-face one. Consequently, it was concluded that the use of online learning environments supports the promotion of undergraduate research culture, by increasing the interest of students for the socialization of their research results.

Effects of globalization on higher educational institutions (HEIs) include student mobility, faculty exchange, research, rankings, academic collaborations, diverse cohorts and international enrolments.

This paper discusses isomorphism which leads to Indian universities becoming more homogenous and thus consequently loosing autonomy and in turn individual identity. Secondly, it discusses the constraints on academic autonomy of new HEIs due to peer pressure isomorphism. with their academic autonomy.

Recently India has adopted a New Education Policy 2020 (NEP 2020). NEP 2020 has given the focus on skill-based blended education with multiple entries and exit facilities. The learners will learn the skills in the laboratory. Students with varying skill levels and edges interact and have the opportunity to observe human behaviours as a result of the multiple entry and exit points. On the other hand, these gatherings can be viewed as opportunities to develop appropriate resources for both administrations and users. Hence there is a need to deal with and introduce a novel approach for updating laboratory management, administration and student handling approach. This article proposes a new methodology with the Internet of things and QR code technology. Proposed method has quickly and readily reading capability of a two-dimensional barcode called a Quick response code (QR code) arranged in systematic manner for ease of operation.

SMILE in Transportation provided future science teachers with an opportunity to interact with cultural professionals in Transportation who were experts in Transportation, had their cultural backgrounds, and presented transportation systems through their cultures. The cultural professionals in Transportation involved inter-disciplinarily professionals not only on the college campus but also from the communities. SMILE in Transportation was a novel approach to increase the knowledge of future science teachers in Transportation and to develop a unique teaching methodology that incorporates the backgrounds of culturally and linguistically diverse students into teaching engineering of Transportation.

DSA course focuses on how to organize, manage and store data in an efficient manner, which facilitates to access data easily and at a faster rate. Different types of data structures, its functionality and its applicability are discussed in this course. At the end of the course, students will have the capability to identify the suitable data structure for a problem. Due to its importance and complexity, pressure will be created on faculty members, who are handling this course. From the perspective of the student, some students understand the concept but lack knowledge of how to apply it. The majority of students struggle to comprehend the data structure and are perplexed by it. Recent work focuses on how faculty members play a major role in active learning like developing models to explain the concept, conducting activities like role play, think-pair share, flipped classrooms and so on. In this work, a study was conducted in the course DSA which focused on reflective practice led by David Kolb's experiential learning theory. An experiment was conducted during Academic Year 2021-22 (Odd) in the course 18CS340 – Data Structures and Algorithms for a set of 54 students. It is inferred that the student gained a higher or deeper knowledge level in this course and is confident to identify appropriate data structures for real world problems. By engaging in reflective practice, faculty members can think around and reflect on their experiences, learn from them, make changes, and enhance their learning and instructional skills.
