Several studies in mammals, birds, and fish have documented better cognitive abilities associated with an asymmetrical distribution of cognitive functions in the two halves of the brain, also known as ‘functional brain lateralization’. However, the role of brain lateralization in learning abilities is still unclear. In addition, although recent studies suggest a link between some personality traits and accuracy in cognitive tasks, the relation between anxiety and learning skills in Skinner boxes needs to be clarified. In the present study, we tested the impact of brain lateralization and anxiety-like behaviour in the performance of an extensive operant conditioning task. Zebrafish tested in a Skinner box underwent 500 trials in a colour discrimination task (red vs. yellow and green vs. blue). To assess the degree of lateralization, fish were observed in a detour test in the presence of a dummy predator, and anxiety-like behaviour was studied by observing scototaxis response in an experimental tank divided into light and dark compartments. Although the low performance in the colour discrimination task did not permit the drawing of firm conclusions, no correlation was found between the accuracy in the colour discrimination task and the behaviour in the detour and scototaxis tests. This suggests that neither different degrees of asymmetries in brain lateralization nor anxiety may significantly impact the learning skills of zebrafish.

The outbreak of COVID-19 had a huge impact on the educational system as it leads to the closure of the educational institutions across globe. This had an impact on both economy and society apart from affecting the students and teachers. The situation became even more worser in the case of the disadvantaged students as it affected not only their education but also lead to problems such as improper nutrition, childcare and also economic problems as many lost their jobs due to the pandemic situation. In order to move on with the situation, UNESCO suggested the educational institutions to takeover virtual platforms as a replacement to the traditional classes in order to reduce the disruption of education. These virtual platforms became a critical lifeline for educational institution as it helps to reduce the transmission of disease. In this paper we could see the ways that the pandemic has transformed the education sector across the world which include Online learning, Unequal access to technology, and educational resources, a wide range of distance learning tools, new methods of assessment with learning management software, online appreciation for teachers and educators and the changing role of parents in education. But there was some gap between educators and learners.


With an abundance of mobile phones in hand, strong internet connectivity with every classroom connected, India has achieved significant progress in the construction of ICT Infrastructure, application of digital resources, teaching innovation as well as talent team construction. With such a flexible learning space, increased practical dependency on ICT, students are relying more on the same to improve learning outcomes and similar related competencies. Such digital learning resources, e-learning tools have provided great assistance to teaching-learning resources.

Simulation of human intelligence process is made possible with the help of artificial intelligence. The learning, reasoning and self-correction properties are made possible in computer systems. Along with AI, other technologies are combined effectively in order to create remarkable applications. We apply the changing role of AI and its techniques in new educational paradigms to create a personalised teaching-learning environment. Features like recognition, pattern matching, decision making, reasoning, problem solving and so on are applied along with knowledge based system and supervised machine learning for a complete learning and assessment process.
