Now a days, blended learning approach in education making a transformation in academic behavior of teachers and students to the great extent. Teaching and learning analytics based on evidences collected through technology tools can lead to fulfill the personalized/customized learning. This paper presents analysis of teacher and students Learning, Reflection, Participation, Engagement and Performance due to adoption of blended learning approach. This work is an outcome of "technology-enhanced and evidence-based education and learning (TEEL)" workshop, participated in Technology for Education (T4E) conference 2018 at IIT Chennai. I have designed (prepared and conducted) online course for a VI semester diploma students on Moodle platform being hosted by LET lab at Kyoto University, Japan. Technology tools like BookRoll and LA-ViEW utilized for improving learning experience and support reflective practices in teaching and learning. Significant engagement and Performance improvement of the students is observed.

Twenty-two students have opted Solid State Physics as an elective in their second semester of their B. Tech course at GITAM Hyderabad. These students were introduced to learning by collaborative methods for new concepts and solve tutorial problem. The A-B-A-B method [1] of instructions was used to evaluate the effect of collaborative learning (CL), with A type being traditional methods and B type active learning methods. The gain has been calculated on the post test for every student after implementing this methodology was obtained to be insignificant. This research articles also tries to analyze, what could be possible causes for such insignificant gain, when CL methods is well studied.

In today's world, we come across various people in all walks of life inclined towards certain interests and disinterests. Knowingly or unknowingly such people with similar interest tend to connect to each other due to matching thought processes. Such may be the case in various scenarios such as work places, schools, colleges and communities. Consider a large institution where admissions happen on a yearly basis and thousands of students are inducted into the institution. Most of the students may not be familiar with each other and may find it hard to interact with each other to collaborate for educational purposes. Our goal is to make it easier for such students to connect. Through an unsupervised manner, we can bring together people and help them connect better.

Parents, along with teachers, play crucial roles in the academic development of children. Studies in the developed countries have found that parental engagement in the children's education is an important predictor for children's academic success. However, less is studied about how parents in a developing country context could engage in their children's education. The recent ASER report 2018 states that the quality of school education has gone down although there is a significant improvement in the enrollment in the last 5 years. In such a case, what supplementary support can the parents provide for better academic outcomes of the children? It is also interesting to investigate how much do the parent and the teacher know about the child's subject knowledge. Are they on the same tangent? Secondly, do the parents who are better engaged make a better academic assessment of the child? We did a baseline study with 6 teachers and 22 parents whose children study in 6th standard in a Odia medium school in Khordha, Odisha. We compared the self-reported assessments by the parents and the teachers about the child's understanding of a particular subject through Likert-scale questionnaires. We also compared them with the actual test scores of the children obtained from the school. We found that there is a medium correlation between the assessment by the parents and that by the teachers. The correlation between the parent's subjective assessment and the child's actual test score was found to be poor. Surprisingly, we also found the same for teacher's subjective assessment and the child's actual test score. We discuss several qualitative insights for these results. Also, we provide potential design implications for better parental engagement in the developing country context.

Virtual Reality (VR) technology enables students to be trained in new behaviour in an authentic and situated learning context. The pilot study investigated the effects of a scaffolded five-minutes 360-degree video-based VR training on communication skills, achievement emotions and motivation among university students in India. The results of an experimental trial with repeated measures show, except for a slight rise in positive emotions for the control group, no significant differences in the VR-condition. Nevertheless, students are highly convinced that VR-training has the potential to improve their academic skills and performance. High acceptance of VR-based education and the potential to replace real education settings at university level were observed.

The purpose of this study is to measure the effectiveness of a MOOC delivered by a leading edu-tech company in India. Effectiveness was evaluated along multiple metric, including the response and learning layers of Kirkpatrick Model. Course statistics and data collected through qualitative and quantitative survey questions and summative assessment performance of the participants were analyzed. The findings indicate that the MOOC was able to address the gaps identified during needs analysis of creating such a MOOC as part of our product training for teachers. Other findings point towards recommendations for designing future MOOCs for our teachers.

Management of large data sets of question papers can be cumbersome, especially when dealing with potential duplicate or erroneous questions. The addition of a natural language system that automatically handles these issues would greatly speed up the verification of such data sets. This is a tool for identifying semantic similarity between sentences in plain-text English. Handpicked features were selected which included simple structural features and word embedding features using word2vec with multiple distance metrics between the resulting sentence vectors. The model is trained on weak hardware allowing for sufficiently high accuracy on low end machines. Results demonstrate the effectiveness of boosting for improving the performance of simple learning models, allowing for complex learning in the absence of high end hardware.

Augmented reality (AR) is an emerging technology that has been shown to have positive impact on the cognitive and affective learning outcomes for students of all grades. However, the use of AR has been limited to self-study space in India and not percolated into school classrooms. A precondition for this to happen is teacher acceptance of AR as a teaching resource. In this paper, we report a pilot study done with six secondary school teachers to test their acceptance of AR through semi-structured interviews. These interviews explored teachers' AR acceptance, based on the three core constructs of the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM2) – perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use and behavioral intention to use. Thematic analysis of interviews show teachers have positive acceptance for AR. The analysis also throws light on two additional contextual factors that govern teachers' intention to use and the type of teacher support needed for effective integration of AR in school education in India. The findings of this paper will be of interest to AR researchers and learning solutions companies.

21st century outcome-based learning pedagogy essentially needs to be supported by effective use of technology in teaching learning. Developing learner centered MOOCs is a popular tendency these days. In India, MHRD has initiated a program called SWAYAM. The present paper examines the impact of NPTEL on faculty and students in non-technical colleges affiliated to Swami Ramanand Teerth Marathwada University, Nanded. The impact is calculated in terms of learning outcomes, graduate attributes, FDP, etc.
