IMPACTS OF VIRTUAL TEACHING ON SKILL DEVELOPMENT AMONG THE STUDENTS OF QUAID-I-AZAM UNIVERSTIY, ISLAMABAD

Abstract

The question of how to ensure the quality of online learning in higher education institutions has become increasingly important in recent years. While various studies have focused on faculty and administrator perceptions of online education quality, there has been a dearth of study on students' perceptions of online education quality. This study used quantitative methodologies to investigate the impacts of virtual teaching on skill development of students’ impressions of the quality of online education based on their own online learning experiences at the Quaid-I Azam am university, Islamabad. Questionnaire was drafted and data was collected from 100 students. Students' positive experiences were found to be flexibility, cost-effectiveness, electronic research availability, simplicity of connection to the Internet, and a well-designed class interface, according to the findings of this study. Delays in receiving feedback from instructors, a lack of technical help from instructors, a lack of self regulation and self-motivation, and a sense of isolation, boring instructional methods, and poorly designed course content all contributed to the students' unfavorable experiences.
