Abstract

This study delves into the impact of E-Learning on girls' education at Samangan University in Afghanistan, focusing on evaluating the efficacy of digital programs within the nation's intricate socio-cultural landscape. The research, encompassing responses from 106 female students through surveys, highlights the critical need for robust infrastructure, reliable internet access, and accessible devices to facilitate active participation in digital learning. Teacher training programs emerge as pivotal for the successful implementation of E-Learning. Factors such as learning support systems and the overall learning experience play significant roles in shaping student engagement and satisfaction. Despite these positive aspects, social barriers, notably gender discrimination, persist, impeding female students' access to and engagement in digital learning. In conclusion, the study suggests that E-Learning holds immense potential to broaden educational opportunities in Afghanistan. It emphasizes the necessity of substantial infrastructure investment, comprehensive teacher training, and addressing social inequalities to foster an inclusive learning environment. Policymakers and educational institutions can leverage these insights to formulate strategies ensuring equitable access to quality education for all female students at Samangan University. The research significantly contributes valuable guidance for prospective investigations and the development of E-Learning initiatives, emphasizing the transformative role of digital learning in advancing education in Afghanistan, particularly for female students.

Abstract

E-learning is an approach that delivers education using digital means, wherein students access classes and resources over web-enabled devices. The study examines the integration of e-learning within Afghanistan's higher education system through a subjective research study by reviewing available literature published between 2019 and 2024 and extracted from databases such as IEEE, Springer, Science Direct, Research Gate, and Scopus. The results highlight several infrastructure barriers considered critical, which include a lack of ICT skills among both teachers and students, unstable internet access, unstable power supply situations, and a dependence on the traditional model of teaching. In addition, socio-political instability and inconsistent policies have further acted as impediments to the mass-level acceptance of e-learning.  Despite these challenges, e-learning offers opportunities for flexibility, access to different resources, and the integration of innovative teaching techniques. Cloud-based tools have proven beneficial during interruptions such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which helped in continuing education with minor interruptions. E-learning encourages independent learning and improves digital literacy, but at the same time, teachers face challenges in engaging students and supporting skill development. The disparity in internet access between the urban and rural areas aggravates the problem even further, whereby cities have more access as compared to the countryside. The study further notes that the present-day government strategies are limited in addressing e-learning, as they do not have a coherent policy framework and suffer from lack of infrastructural support. Investments in technology and teacher training are an urgent need to improve e-learning in Afghanistan.

Abstract

E-learning has common meanings with the terms network-based education, distance learning, web-based education, and computer-based education. Today, e-learning is a common learning tool for education due to its effectiveness. Due to the Covid-19 lockdown, governments shifted their regular education to an e-learning system. Apart from opportunities, this shift created challenges and obstacles to its implementation. We aim to investigate the barriers and opportunities of e-learning deployment in public universities. Hence, a case study research was designed, and data was gathered through questionnaires and interviews with 96 individuals from Kunduz, Parwan, Kabul, Takhar, Ghor, and Samangan universities, encompassing diverse fields of study. The data were analysed using SPSS 26. According to this research, 63% of participants strongly agreed with the effectiveness of e-learning implementation. Furthermore, certain opportunities and obstacles emerged after the utilization of e-learning platforms by both students and lecturers. The challenges of e-learning deployment were lack of access to the internet, lack of stable electricity, and poverty. Contribution to the literature: In comparison with the existing literature, the current study provided an analysis of e-learning in its tension-filled relationship with the broader institutional structures and sociocultural realities of public universities in Afghanistan that circumscribe teaching and learning. The analysis provided entrées into infrastructural conditions, economic contexts, and socio-political circumstances that facilitate and inhibit the implementation of e-learning while offering suggestions for policymakers and practitioners in similar consideration of areas that are similarly unstable.
