The worst hit is the educational sector especially in Nigeria where all educational institutions were closed down for almost a year. Educational institutions around the world have therefore adopted the use of information and communication technology (ICT) at various levels ranges from communication, commerce and even human resource management. This paper explores the use of e-learning as a tool for social and collaborative teaching and learning in pandemic era. The paper is descriptive in nature where tools and technologies for creating e-learning platforms are discussed. The Unified Modelling Language (UML) techniques of Use Case and Activity diagrams were used. The models show the interactions based on email interactions, social media network, and learning management system (LMS) were identified and described as tools for social and collaborative teaching and learning models. The paper suggests that e-learning platforms should be used at various levels of educational institutions in Nigeria, stakeholders in education sector should come up with a policy framework that will enforce the adoption of e-learning in addition to conventional teaching and learning models in Nigeria, library and information services should be digitalized with cutting edge digital infrastructure in order to partake in the information sharing networks, teachers and students should be encouraged to acquire proficiency in ICT skills, and finally, teachers should endeavour to share learning materials via electronic portals and tasks the students to using them.
