    SOMC Organises Faculty Seminar and Paper Presentation

    In an informative session for the faculty members of the School of Mass Communication, a Faculty Seminar and Paper Presentation was conducted October 30. The resource person was Anwesha Sen Majumdar, Assistant Professor, SOMC. The topic of the seminar was "Interpretive structural modeling for the barriers in the adoption of educational websites in India".


    The aim of the seminar was to create awareness on the different barriers creating hurdles in the adoption of educational websites in India. This was analysed with the help of a model that showed a hierarchical paradigm as well as contextual interrelationships among those barriers. Topics such as internet penetration in India, use of social media for e-learning, internet speed and education, use of technology in modern pedagogy, gender and technology and implementation of ICT policies were also discussed. Overall, the seminar was helpful for the faculty members who are pursuing Ph.D in various fields of media.
