The emergence of e-learning as an alternative learning tool amid the COVID-19 pandemic has various challenges and opportunities. The global COVID-19 pandemic has caused many negative impacts and the adaption of new normal in various aspects. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to the usage of e-learning which has been seen as a precautionary as well as an improvised medium in the education process in india. This research aims to explore the experiences encompassing the benefits and challenges faced by students in schools by implementing e-learning as an innovative learning method in the future. Through the mixed-method approach, it can be concluded that e-learning can be accepted as an effective solution in dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic in the field of education, but it still requires improvements in terms of infrastructure in regards to device availability and internet facilities, and interaction amongst teacherstudent and student-student so that e-learning does not merely move classrooms into digital classrooms, but also provides a wider transformation and hence overall experience that makes it easier for students to learn and gain knowledge. Research provides student perspectives on undergoing e-learning which is expected to be a recommendation tool for schools to establish and provide a good e-learning model and a hence better experience.

The current study has been designed to study the relationship between social media usage and health awareness practices as well as panic among the Indian youth during COVID-19. A survey was conducted among the university students in Delhi-NCR region to assess the effect of social media on their health behaviour in the wake of the pandemic. An online survey of 250 students was executed employing a 5-point Likert scale based self-administered questionnaire consisting of 23 questions. The data was analysed using smart PLS-SEM (Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling). The results indicate that behavioural change in a person is key to his protection against the lethal virus. While the social media induced panic does not trigger a positive behaviour change, neither does it lead to protective practices. Moreover, it also shows that the higher the level of awareness about COVID-19, the more likelihood of exhibiting positive health behaviour and adoption methods of protection. It is also revealed that while social media promote behaviour change, protection and public awareness, it may also infuse panic among the users.

Globally, communication is widely accepted as a tool for accelerating development in urban and rural settings. In many rural areas the channels and media sources which are available to the resident indigenes for development information are not ascertained because of a number of factors which could range from inaccessibility of these areas, to lack of awareness of media and the unorganized nature of these rural areas. This paper is based on a study which investigated the existing channels of communication and media which citizens are exposed to, and the most beneficial development information to the citizens in a rural community in Nigeria. The study found that the existing interpersonal channel of communication was preferred over the media of radio which was also the next leading source of development information to citizens in the rural community. Therefore, community leaders should ensure that resident indigenes are exposed to development information in the mass media by ensuring that adequate information is given to the citizens.
