On the other hand, side-effects of prolonged usage of electronic media were taken into account and balanced solutions were proposed. A solution set to the problem statement of, „How to effectively harbor use of ICT and electronic media in academia‟ was made consisting of tried and tested tools along with new ones. Finally, importance of adoption of new age learning methodologies to pedagogy was enunciated along with proposed techniques to enhance classroom learning.
