What is E-Learning?
Electronic learning (e-learning) is a learning system that relies on digital technology to deliver educational content and training programs. It relies on electronic devices, such as computers, tablets, and smartphones, to access educational content and resources that are available online. It is available in different forms, including self-paced courses, virtual classrooms, online tutorials, webinars, and interactive multimedia resources.
It enables learners to access educational materials at their own pace and convenience and helps them engage in collaborative learning with other students and instructors from remote locations. It offers interactive elements like quizzes, games, and other multimedia content, which help increase engagement and knowledge retention. It can also be customized to meet the specific needs of individuals, such as language, skill level, and learning style.
COVID-19 Impact:
The COVID-19 pandemic outbreak had a significant impact on the education industry of Africa and imposed unprecedented challenges in the region. With the closure of schools and universities, e-learning occurred as an essential tool to ensure that students could continue their education. The pandemic triggered an exponential increase in demand for e-learning resources across Africa, which led to the rapid growth of the e-learning industry. In addition, governing agencies implemented various initiatives during the pandemic to support the e-learning industry.
Moreover, several companies and organizations partnered with schools and universities to provide free or discounted access to e-learning resources. Despite the efforts to expand e-learning, the pandemic exposed the digital divide that exists in Africa, limiting the ability of some students to access e-learning resources. In line with this, lack of access to digital devices, poor internet connectivity, and limited electricity supply were major barriers to e-learning in the region. However, the e-learning industry in Africa demonstrated significant strength in the face of these challenges.
Consequently, start-ups and e-learning providers quickly adapted their services to cater to the changing needs of learners, with many offering free or low-cost e-learning resources. The pandemic also provided an opportunity for the e-learning industry in Africa to innovate and create new solutions that address the challenges faced by learners. For instance, various e-learning providers developed mobile apps that allow learners to access educational content offline without the need for an internet connection.
