Abstract

Different conceptual frameworks of teacher effectiveness have been proposed and tested. However, no significant advances have been made in conceptualizing a framework of online teaching effectiveness particularly in the Indian ed-tech industry. There is an acute digital skills gap, since conventional teachers are unable to rise up to the expectations of navigating the complexities of online teaching. This calls for an exhaustive teacher upskilling process. This qualitative study, through focus group discussions with significant stakeholders shows the impact of teacher training initiatives in an Indian ed-tech organization called Vedantu. The findings of the study have practical implications for ed-tech organizations aiming to implement similar initiatives to influence key learning outcomes.
