Abstract
E-teaching readiness encompasses a range of
skills, attitudes, and resources necessary to facilitate successful online
teaching and create a meaningful learning experience for students in virtual or
remote environments. To study E-teaching readiness among university teachers
during COVID-19, an online survey was conducted with 35 teachers of Himachal Pradesh
University, who were involved in online education during COVID-19. Here
Modified version of the E-teaching Readiness Scale (Watkins, 2003) was designed
in the Google form and sent via social media like WhatsApp, email, and Facebook
for data collection. Percentage analysis was used to analyze
the data. The findings of the study show that all teachers from the law, MBA
and more than 70% of teachers from computer and social sciences were able to
communicate online, whereas 50% of teachers from language use online tools to
work on assignments and provide timely responses to students who are in
different times zones. All MBA teachers,75% of language teachers, 66% of
teachers from law and sciences, 50% of computer teachers and 38% of teachers
from social science background were able to remain motivated even though the
technical expert is not online at all the times and complete their work even
when there are distractions at their houses (e.g., television, children etc.).
Further, 77% of sciences, 75% of the law, 61% of social sciences, and 50% of
university teachers from MBA, language and computers felt that regular contact,
quick technical and administrative support is important for my success in
online coursework.
