| YouTube Videos | Faculty members in those courses developed the video lectures, which covered the same material as in-person lectures on certain subjects. Students can take the lecture with them and can do so anywhere via video lectures. In order to better understand the material, students can pause the lecture and play back specific parts. The parts of the topics they already know can be skipped. It is especially helpful for slow learners since they can modify the faculty member’s content delivery speed and topic selection to meet their learning rate.

| Collaborative Learning | Group Discussions- Debate Role play Think-pair-share Poster making Making models and charts Peer-Paced learning | During class, a group leader is selected for each group discussion activity. The group leader is made responsible for all the outcomes of the activity of that particular day. Every time, the group leader is changed to pass the responsibility to each student by the end of the semester. Students acquire responsibility and leadership from this. Debate as a teaching pedagogy fosters critical thinking, research skills, and effective communication. The two teams will discuss with each other . Before the opening of the debate both teams will have 5 minutes to get ready for the debate. The team can start debate after 5 minutes. The debate ends after 20 minutes.
