These are collections of information in electronic or digital format that are accessed on an electronic device such as mobile phone, laptop, computers etc. Today availability of e-resources in a university library is becoming an imperative role. The present paper examines the attitude of PG students' towards using e-resources in their learning. It is useful for finding information not yet available in books, or obtaining up-to-date information on current events or issues. It also provides with authoritative, accurate, current, objective reference material not readily available through a search engine like Google. 200 PG students were chosen by random sampling technique from various departments of Gulbarga University. Standardized tool was used developed by Dr. S Rajasekar (Attitude towards using e-resources). The results indicated that post graduate students have favorable attitude towards using e-resources in and off the campus. It is also found that there is a significant difference based on gender and management.

Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have brought tremendous changes in all-round development of the society through transmission of information. Application of information technology to Library and Information Science has provided wider opportunities in archiving and accessing knowledge in the digitized form besides conservation and preservation of the traditional knowledge. Digitization of materials will provide enhanced access to the electronic information sources and the users can access the digital content irrespective of time and space boundaries. The paper tries to fulfill the objectives, to observe the awareness and use of digital library by the students, to study the purpose of information seeking by the students followed by hypotheses. For the present study survey method has been used. Random sampling technique was adopted in sample selection of 50 PG students from various Dept. of Central University of Karnataka. For the collection of data the standardized tool was used. Results indicated that more number of students is depended on the usage of digital library. The internet facility has enabled the students to enhance their academic excellence by providing them the latest information and access worldwide information.

Among the new approaches and innovations that have gained importance in recent years is programmed instruction. The purpose of programmed instruction is to manage learning under controlled conditions. Many of the research studies also found that learning and understanding is significantly increasing with the help of programmed instruction. Branching programming is one of the major types of programmed instruction. The main objective of the study was to find out the impact of branching programmed learning material in English grammar at PU level and also to study the difference between the control and experimental group in their learning outcomes. In address to this, the researcher administered pre and post test for 120 students from N.V PU college. The data were obtained and statistically analyzed with appropriate technique. The major findings revealed that branching programmed learning material has positive impact on students learning and there is significant difference in science, arts and commerce students’ achievement. Therefore more number of students can be motivated to learn through learning material in ease and effective manner.

Higher education has received a lot of attention in India over the past few years. There are three reasons for this recent focus. First, country's weak higher education system is being blamed for skill shortages in several sectors of economy. Second, reservation quotas in higher education institutions, particularly the more reputed ones that provide access to high status and best-paid jobs became a highly divisive issue, central to the policy of inclusive growth and distributive justice, and hence politically very important. Third, in the backdrop of the first two developments, it began to be argued that the country would not be able to sustain its growth momentum and maintain competitiveness unless problems with higher education are fixed. Last, demand for higher education continues to outpace the supply due to growing population of young people, gains in school education, the growing middle class and their rising aspirations. This paper contains higher educational reservations which have been recommended by the different commissions and educational policies. And also the recent developments in higher education and impact of the reservation policies.

It draws on an analysis of 50 different subject teachers in school. Evident commitment to incorporating ICT was tempered by a cautious, critical approach, and by the influence of external constraints. Teacher accounts emphasized both the use of ICT to enhance and extend existing classroom practice, and change in terms of emerging forms of activity which complemented or modified practice. Results show that many teachers apply several elements of powerful learning environments in their classes. This especially goes for the presentation of authentic tasks and the fostering of active and autonomous learning. However, the methods employed by teachers to adapt education to the needs and abilities of individual pupils proved quite limited. A gradual process of pedagogical evolution was apparent; teachers were developing and trialing new strategies specifically for mediating ICT‐supported learning. In particular, these overcame the potentially obstructive role of some forms of ICT by focusing pupils' attention onto underlying learning objectives.

Its focus is on the acquisition of knowledge, self-learning, generic and transferable skills in communication, entrepreneurship, management and technology that are the characteristics of the learning society of today. From last two decades use of technology for teaching and learning has received a lot of attention. Teachers play a vital role in the adoption and implementation of ICT in education. The present study is an attempt to investigate the use of new technologies in secondary teachers. The main objective of the study is to identify the attitude of male and female teachers towards using new technology. For the present study the method of data collection was primarily done through questionnaire surveys on secondary school teachers of different discipline. 120 secondary school teachers were selected for data collection through random sampling technique. Standardized questionnaire was used in the study. The results revealed that there is no significant difference between male and female secondary school teachers in accessing new technologies. The findings also indicated that there is a positive attitude in accessibility and functionality in using new technologies among secondary school teachers.

The current study aimed to understand the different digital technologies which are proved evidently useful for the better learning. When people talk about the future of education, it often triggers visions of an iPad in every student's hands, classes monitored—or even taught—by robots, and teachers lecturing via webcam to hundreds of thousands of pupils at any given moment. Some of this is already happening in one form or another. Without a doubt, technology will be a crucial part of the future of education. Many digital technologies are making tremendous change in teaching and learning process. The present paper also tries to highlight some of the digital technologies for the future classroom. Such as interactive board, digital desk, iris pen scanner, live scribe smart pen etc. The paper tries to meet the objectives, to understand the importance of digital technologies, to identify different digital technologies as tools. Hence it is the need of the hour in the teaching as well as learning process.

The study aims to investigate the usage and gratification of internet in secondary school students'. The study established that there is a positive relationship between exposure to internet uses and gratifications sought by secondary students. The students use and get motivated to use the internet for many purposes viz, communication, information seeking, developing social interactions than for entertainment, coping with peer pressure, escape from problems etc. A structured questionnaire was used for the data collection. 100 samples were selected by using simple random technique. Data were collected by survey method. The study reveals that most of the students use internet for seeking information regarding their learning especially they use to download previous year question papers to solve it. Sometimes the use of internet also helps them in making assignments given by the teacher at school. Thus the uses and gratification sought by students were influenced by various dimensions.
