Introduction
Increased educational opportunities, new learning models and technological advances have fast infuenced not only education but the society as a whole (Harasim, 2000). The online world has provided a space for educators to share knowledge, provide consultation and advice (Woollard, 2011). Pedagogical strategies have changed substantially (Dwivedi et al., 2019) and online learning has gained momentum with increased usage of ICT (Information and Communication Technologies). The domains of learning and teaching in higher education have experienced dramatic changes due to Covid-19 with a mandatory online education environment. Educational institutions (schools, colleges, and universities) have been quick to rapidly adapt technology and implement the practices of online education. Overnight, all teaching–learning went online irrespective of teachers having any past online teaching / learning experience. Before Covid-19, only selected educational institutions were providing internet-based online courses to complement their classroombased courses and, some educational institutions were providing distance education, but now almost all of the educational institutions have moved their teaching online or in virtual space as a new normal. The mediums, formats and technologies in teaching have changed, and the teaching style, pedagogy and efectiveness have all been drastically afected.
