This research paper focuses on the micro level experiment of my college-H.R.College of Commerce & Economics in Mumbai in e-learning to provide practical solutions to the general problem that the an over-populated country like India faces of providing mass education to our burgeoning population. The right to education is declared as a fundamental right of every student, as well as fundamental duty of every parent that has to be universally provided free till the age of 14. However, the challenges get magnified as the graph of higher education gets asymmetrical and inequitable across gender, communities, and classes. Also, lower incomes, alternative sources of part-time employment, SEZ's and BPO proliferation and options of professional courses accentuated by globalization threaten the regular and traditional theoretical courses and streams as student attendance in classes and exams is dismal. e-learning would provide an excellent solution of connecting with the students and improving the vitual interface between the teacher and the taught. It has added benefits of crossing the time and geographical borders as it encourages convenient teaching-learning practices enhanced by the infotech revolution that can be replicated to all situations and institutions. On a larger canvass, this space and time saving mechanism has more benefits than costs and is in sync with the General Agreement on Trade in Services (GATS) and its Mode 1 od cross border delivery. Glocal experiments of this kind must be encouraged, showcased and emulated as 'best practices'.

Keywords: micro level experiment, e-learning, virtual interface, GATS, Mode 1, 'best practices'.
