Abstract

Virtual classroom platform for online teaching and collaboration has emerged as a crucial field of study in the area of research and education. The main objective of online teaching is to be able to integrate new learning methods and technologies keeping in mind that active learning takes place in both synchronous and asynchronous mode without affecting the goals of the curriculum and student learning environment (Auster and Wylie in J. Manag. Educ. 30:333–353, 2006). Many effective teaching methods are practiced by the educators to deliver the course online during class hours and outside class. In this paper, we focus on our experience in building student’s self-efficacy as well as building their peer learning abilities through proper structuring of the modules, use of specific software’s that assist at better structuring the competencies in learning using an approach where students learn lessons themselves and instructors check students understanding during class hours. The efficiency of this approach is analyzed by comparing student’s satisfaction rate at the start and end of the semester.
