The relation of any fine art expresses the elixir of human, physical, and physical world. As civilization grows more and more civilized and cultured, the development of fine arts reaches its peak. Music is a major part of the fine arts. The place of music in Indian civilization is paramount in the fine arts. The great Indian civilization has been underlining the importance of music education since its height. From ancient Vedic and medieval to modern times, the Indian educational system has been concentrating on the education of music; all its parts such as singing, playing and dancing. In the present era, radical changes in the teaching system can be reflected. Divisions like traditional and distance education can also be reflected in the teaching system. Today, the importance of a flexible and alternative system of remote education system cannot be denied. Needless to say that through remote learning, changes in the importance of traditional teaching of music, guruship relations, internal learning method of music and music in life; the importance of all its organs. In the present era, while on the one hand there has been a remarkable change in social and personal life, changes in the teaching method of all subjects can also be targeted. The importance of many new dimensions developed in music education through remote means can be understood. State-of-the-art mediums such as audio, audio, video via Internet, sophisticated equipment of communication, television and radio etc. can be used successfully in music teaching by remote media.The objective of the paper presented is to find a way to solve the problems arising out of it and the benefits of acquiring higher education of Indian classical music through a distance learning system. किसी भी ललित कला का संबंध मानव के दैहिकए दैविक और भौतिक जगत के उत्‍कर्ष को व्‍यक्‍त करता है। सभ्‍यता ज्‍यों.ज्‍यों अधिकाधिक सभ्‍य एवं सुसंस्‍कृत होती जाती है त्‍योंदृत्‍यों ललित कलाओं का विकास अपने चरम पर पहुंचता जाता है। संगीतए ललित कला का एक प्रमुख अंग है। भारतीय सभ्‍यता में संगीत का स्‍थान ललित कला में सर्वोपरि है। महान भारतीय सभ्‍यता अपने उत्‍कर्ष काल से ही संगीत की शिक्षा के महत्व को रेखांकित करती आई है। प्राचीनए वैदिक एवं मध्‍यकाल से आधुनिक काल तक भारतीय शिक्षण प्रणाली संगीत ;उसके सभी अंगों यथा गायनए वादन एवं नृत्‍यद्ध की शिक्षा पर अपना ध्‍यान केन्द्रित करती रही है। वर्तमान युग में शिक्षण प्रणाली में आमूल चूल परिवर्तन को परिलक्षित किया जा सकता है। शिक्षण प्रणाली में पारम्‍परिक एवं दूरस्‍थ शिक्षा जैसे विभाजनों को भी परि‍लक्षित किया जा सकता है। आज दूरस्‍थ शिक्षा प्रणाली की लचीली तथा वैकल्पिक व्‍यवस्‍था के महत्‍व को नकारा नहीं जा सकता। कहना न होगा कि दूरस्‍थ शिक्षण माध्‍यम से संगीत की पारम्‍परिक शिक्षाए गुरूदृशिष्‍य संबंधोंए संगीत की आंतरिक शिक्षण पद्धति तथा जीवन में संगीत;उसके सभी अंगोंद्ध के महत्‍व में आए बदलावों को अनुभव किया जा सकता है। वर्तमान युग में जहां एक ओर सामाजिक एवं व्‍यक्तिगत जीवन में आश्‍चर्यजनक परिवर्तन आया है वहीं सभी विषयों की शिक्षण पद्धति में भी परिवर्तन को लक्षित किया जा सकता है। दूरस्‍थ माध्‍यम से संगीत शिक्षा में विकसित कई नए आयामों का महत्‍व समझा जा सकता है। तकनीकी के अत्‍याधुनिक माध्‍यमों दृ जैसे ऑडियोदृविडियो माध्‍यमए इंटरनेटए संचार के अत्‍याधुनिक उपकरणए टेलीविजन एवं रेडियो आदि का उपयोग दूरस्‍थ माध्‍यम द्वारा संगीत शिक्षण में सफलतापूर्वक किया जा सकता है । प्रस्‍तुत शोधपत्र का उद्देश्‍य दूरस्‍थ शिक्षण प्रणाली के माध्‍यम से भारतीय शास्‍त्रीय संगीत की उच्‍च शिक्षा ग्रहण करने के लाभए इससे उत्‍पन्‍न समस्‍याओं एवं उनके निराकरण का मार्ग खोजना है ।

The distance learning method has changed the conception of classical education and training. In Turkey the distance learning mission has been undertaken by Anadolu University Open Education Faculty (OEF). Therefore, the presence of OEF in higher education has been considered as the need and demand for higher education through “distance learning system”. However, studying the state’s OEF move “a demand” is not sufficient for an integral analysis. The economic and political structure in the period when OEF was integrated into the education system was critical. In this context, there are significant social dynamics underlying the foundation of OEF as well. In this study, the differences between the distance learning experience in Turkey and other countries are analyzed. Besides the role and share of the OEF in higher education in Turkey is discussed and the socioeconomic reasons of the foundation of the OEF, as specified above, are studied within the framework of the background of the state’s educational move. Finally, the positive and negative views of the individuals on the OEF are presented in the study and suggestions are made in this framework.

Despite that the system of higher education has been greatly affecting during the crisis of COVID-19, the Higher Education institutions forced to adapt to the new situation quickly and change the models of education from traditional system to distance learning system because of the increasing of student enrollments. Although there are different systems of Distance Learning which helps students get their education, still doubts of achieving the planed learning outcomes. The aim of this paper is to try understand the most requirements needed to build a good distance learning system, and to know the impact of distance learning requirements in achieving learning outcomes during COVID-19 at the private Jordanian universities. The results revealed that the Jordanian Private Universities operating at Amman are aware of the importance of distance learning requirements (The Human Resources, the Infrastructure, the Academic, the Financial, and the Managerial). And the learning outcomes (the knowledge, skills and competencies) were achieved by using distance learning as a substitute of face to face education. For this purposes a purposive sample was selected consisted of (11) Universities that are operating at AmmanGovernorate, and the sampling unit was consisted of those who occupied the positions of dean and head of academic department in the (11) universities, and their number reached (235). The most important recommendation of this paper is to strengthen the human resources, the infrastructure and the academic requirements, and to get attention more to the financial and the managerial requirements on achieving leaning outcomes.

The traditional teaching system uses local area network to realize online teaching, which leads to high stability and hardware load of the teaching system and makes it difficult to meet the teaching demand. To solve the above problems, a dance movement distance learning system based on wireless network communication technology is designed. On the B/S architecture, the hardware control module and communication module of the system are designed. The fuzzy set principle is used to evaluate the students’ dance cognitive ability, so as to personalize the recommended teaching contents. The teaching video is compressed according to H.264/AV compression standard to reduce the system transmission and processing load. The system functionality test results show that the maximum transmission packet loss rate of the designed system is 8.3%, and the lost data does not interfere with teaching, has low computer memory consumption, and has superior performance.

The Open and Distance Learning system has been able to make a positive impact in the conflict-ridden communities of Kashmir valley in India. This part of the India has long been under the influence of armed militancy which drastically affected the access to higher education. The Open and Distance Learning systems started operating in this area with a modest beginning made by Directorate of Correspondence Courses but had a limited impact. IGNOU which is the largest provider of ODL Programmes in India started developing its network in Kashmir valley in 1999 with its unique approach based on collaboration and sharing of resources. The target groups dominantly composed of unemployed youth, school drop outs, working population, rural folks, women etc has traditionally been deprived of Higher education. This chapter describes the approach of IGNOU and its impact in such conflict-ridden societies which is worth replicating in similar socioeconomic setups across the developing world.

PurposeThe purpose of the study is to identify the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in higher education regarding distance learning system in Pakistan.Design/methodology/approachA mixed-method research design was used in this study. The population of the study was all the previous students of research work and all the teachers of these students working at MPhil and PhD level in AIOU in Pakistan. Stratified random sampling technique was used in this study. This study used the questionnaire and interview technique to collect data. Data of questionnaire was in numbers and data of interview was narrative. So it was the need of the study that a mixed-method approach, i.e. both quantitative and qualitative techniques should be used in this study.FindingsThe findings of the study show that AIOU has also strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in higher education related to distance education like all the formal and distance universities of Pakistan and World. This study reflected that AIOU is a great blessing for those who cannot acquire their education regularly because of financial/family problems or they are job holders. But this study also described that at higher level students are facing a lot of problems especially there is a delay in research process and provision of no scholarships to students. The teachers have a low salary package than the other public universities of Pakistan and a lot of responsibilities to attend meetings, seminars, conferences and workshops. So they have less time for research work. And AIOU provides them fewer opportunities to go abroad for further studies or to attend conferences/seminars. This study recommended that there should be adopted such policies in AIOU that students could get their study materials, assignments duration, workshops schedule and degrees in time, the teachers of the concerned departments should allow to take more in numbers the students under their supervision, the pay package for the teachers working at MPhil and PhD level should be raised and the opportunities for the faculty members to go.Research limitations/implicationsThis study is limited to analyze the higher education system especially the distance learning system in Pakistan.Practical implicationsThis study has indicated the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats in higher education which the AIOU is facing recently and the policymakers can develop plans/strategies to make better the distance learning system especially at higher level in Pakistan. This study can be helpful for the stakeholders who are interested in distance learning system. This study was conducted at higher level in the distance learning system but it can open the ways for the other researchers to conduct research in other disciplines related to distance education, i.e. at matric level, F.A/F.SC, B.Sc programs, Master level and M.Sc programs at AIOU.Social implicationsThrough this study, it can be acknowledged how the AIOU is providing the opportunity of education to a large number of people in the society who cannot study regularly in the formal institutions especially those who are job holders, some financial problems and women who have some family problems and above one million people are benefitting from AIOU in Pakistan and world.Originality/valueThis study is original in this respect because the data has been collected from the participants, i.e. students and teachers of AIOU. And it has also great value because this is the first SWOT analysis which has been conducted in this university to examine the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats facing AIOU at present time. This study can also become a base for the stakeholders', i.e. policymakers, administration and higher education depart. of Pakistan in developing strategies to improve and amend the distance learning system of Pakistan especially at higher level in AIOU.

At present, people have a tendency to carry out higher education in a distance mode due to their busy lifestyles. However, open and distance learning (ODL) educational organizations encounter difficulties when delivering laboratory experiments. This paper presents the development of an online laboratory platform as a solution. It can be used to deliver laboratory experiments, using electronic components and instruments such as a signal generator and oscilloscope. Students are able to perform experimental tasks remotely utilizing real equipment and components. The system users can view laboratory environments via a camera which provides a sense of reality.The platform provides facilities to customize and rebuild the laboratory experiments according to the requirements of the organization. It can also be utilized as a useful educational tool to acquire pre-experience before entering the real laboratory. Thestatistical analysis shows no significant difference between the face-to-face laboratory (FFL) and online remote laboratory (ORL) experimental results within a 95% confidence level.The system can enhance the existing open and distance learning system by sharing the resources in a flexible manner.This system reduces the difficulties that distance learning students encounter when participating in FFL sessions. It also reduces the number of FFL sessions and is helpful to working students. One of the main objectives of ODL is to provide a learning environment for those who missed the opportunity for higher education for a variety of reasons. This system will help to achieve this objective.

COVID-19 pandemic has affected many sectors of life including education. Many countries had implemented the policy on distance learning. Distance education denotes the physical separation of the learner from the instructor, both by time and space. Information and communication technologies (ICTs) including online media are used to bridge the educators and the learners. The distance learning system forced the teacher to shift the traditional teaching method of face-to-face teaching to no-physical contact teaching in all stages of educations such as primary and secondary education, higher and vocational education, and special education. We found that teachers have been applied different strategies based on the unique challenges they faced. According to the COVID-19 situation, teachers from all stages of education have gathered all the solutions that could be applied. So that, it could help students to adapt to distance learning by transforming the traditional learning system to mandate distance learning system like nowadays when COVID-19 positive case could be controlled by contactless only.
