Abstract

The sole intention of this paper is to understand the technostress and its impact on the skill development of students who underwent online education during the time of Covid-19 Pandemic. Analyzing data obtained from 23 students who attended online classes from selected colleges in the Alappuzha district of Kerala state, India, the study has found that the students experienced technostress of a mild level on account of their immediate exposure to the online learning methods, although the problems did not turn out to be as serious as many previous studies point out. Students did take no longer time to adapt to the new methods of teaching. But, they were of the view that online learning took away their private time. The Study has also shown that technostress that the students experienced has had certain undesirable, albeit not so severe, adverse consequences on their skill development.
