Online teaching has brought many challenges for the faculty members. The tutors were not exposed to this new setting earlier. Therefore, it is essential to judge whether online teaching offered by the faculties of the Royal University of Bhutan (RUB) is effective or not. By reviewing the literature and by examining the research objectives quantitative research design was adopted. For the study, five colleges under RUB were selected. The study result revealed that online teachings across the five colleges were not effective.Downloads
