Yousif Yaqoob Shahtha Yes to a great extent, particularly with the changes in e-learning platforms recently
Yes, no doubt e-learning is positive tool for teaching learning, but it depends on situation demands. It has both merits and limitations. We have to take the benefits of each tool or method. Especially in Covid pandemic it is a vital as an alternative of traditional face to face learning.
For children, especially young children, e-learning was and is a great failure. Socially, emotionally, academically, and economically. Most all models show this as overwhelming for most all groups.
In my opinion, it is not really proven that these results were positive, especially since many university careers had instrumental or manual learning objectives, such as medicine, nursing and pure and applied sciences. For example, I cannot significantly learn to handle a spectrophotometer if I do not do it manually and even the whole process of calibration can not be learned by videos or zoom
During Covid 19 my e-learning experience was very awesome as a learner but as a teacher it’s different with different categories if students. for undergrads i felt that how to get their responses as some were noisy and non serious but for masters it was a great experience may be due to small group and their maturity level.
It is different for every school, organization, and country. Here are a couple of useful links for research articles that tackle your question. If you need specific location results, I can share more with you.

in my opinion, it depends on the kind of pedagogical method for e-learning. For example, the "whiteboard" in many schools, which means another kind of blackboard rather than others, is a failure. The only benefit thing is for the teachers' health, cause there is no chalk.
Yes it is positive, especially when there is good access and connectivity.
e-learning is the option which was resorted to during covid 19, but when situations come to normal, traditional lectures should be resumed. Still, the results of e-learnig depend mainly on the students thmeslves. if they are good and keen to learn, they will get benifits from it. otherwise, they will rarely learn from this kind of learning and teaching.
No. Because many students are bored with this system and they are easily deviated. They do not listen to the tutor. They may spend their time in Social Media and Video games. They will not take it as a serious task.
I believe it really depends on the context. It varies from one to another. In my context, it hasn't been that effective in my own classes, mainly because of the technical problems, and negative stereotypes toward online learning. But step by step, it is getting much better.
It cannot be asserted that the results were positive, but the experience began to develop and the negatives were overcome, especially the reduction of cheating cases
As an option to pandemic times, it was all we could have. To my view, education does not imply only in transmitting information. BTW, this can be found on the internet and well-elaborated and fun grammar presentations can be found in loads of videos. The main issue is that education requires interaction, feedback, eye-to-eye conversations and the development of bonds. Thus we see why statistics show it was desastrous with young learners and also with teens. Adults engaged more mainly for a convenience: no need to spend time to & from places or costs with transportation. They could cope with that, but I can not generalize saying it worked for adults. It DOES work when there is a study program, std's autonomy and diligence. However, a new model as the online learning needs a new model of learning!
Even with the right technology, e-learning can only be at peak effectiveness with devoted and accomplished human interaction; i.e., discussion boards, concientious students/peers/faculty, meaningful assignments with coaching and feedback, one-on-one people interactions (student to student, faculty and student) make the right environment for the most effective learning.
E- learning platforms and resources like Google classrooms, zoom and social media like WhatsApp were actually effective during the covid-19 pandemic but not without a cost. These cost include connectivity of network, availability of data and android phones which if not monitored can constitute a nuisance and distraction on its own. The way out is for blended learning and teaching strategies that combines the tradition face to face platform with virtual or eLearning platforms
Depending on the user. If the user uses it with good intentions then it is positive but if otherwise then it is negative.
The requirement of education is the existence of interaction between students and teachers in schools with special educational programs, as an environment similar to society. Nevertheless, I think that in critical situations where it was not possible to physically attend school (such as the situation resulting from the Covid-19 crisis), e-learning was a good alternative option. Of course, by analyzing its strengths and weaknesses, we can expect to use a more perfect system in the future if needed.
I agree, Manouchehr Karimi. That's also my point of view. What could and should be done is a development of online teaching solving what was found out to be its weaknesses to make it more suitable to further situations.
I think that e-learning has become a very urgent necessity, and preparations must be made for it. By promoting the learning of young adults. Positively, and getting families used to that, while providing communication requirements and learning and teaching programs and applications, and setting foundations and controls for that. Natural and other disasters, guests without an appointment E-learning and distance learning have become a way of life in these circumstances, and an urgent necessity, especially in the purely non-applied sciences.
To some extent, under circumstances that are not prepared in advance I think it's done, relatively
In my opinion it all depends on the science taught, there are careers such as law that can be taught virtually, however an oral trial in person is different from a virtual one due to the characteristics of the oratory and the intervetions of the parties. Also, careers such as medicine and nursing or biology and chemistry require laboratory practices and the use of equipment and resources that cannot be taught or learned at a distance.
Hi Yousif Yaqoob Shahtha, I hope my answer is helpful for you. In my opinion, in the beginning, the disadvantages of this method were more than its advantages, and the only thing that continued it was the conditions of Covid - 19 disease. But gradually, with the creation of suitable infrastructure, the benefits of this method became apparent. Among the disadvantages of virtual education, the following can be mentioned: 1. lack of sufficient facilities for some students, 2. reduction of academic motivation, 3. lack of familiarity of teachers and students with the way of virtual education, and 4. excessive family involvement in Student's educational process. But with solutions to improve virtual education, the disadvantages of this style can be reduced to a great extent, and its advantages can be increased. Children should be taught, and families, especially teachers, are primarily responsible for creating a culture of virtual education between families and children. They should be able to increase children's learning levels by creating creativity in virtual teaching and encouraging them to learn as much as possible. Many courses require high interaction, like math. Teaching these courses has a higher level of difficulty.
Of course, these educational conditions created suitable platforms for virtual education. This way, students could access a high education level from distant places. Education was not limited by time. The value of education and the position of a teacher became visible to others and caused people's media literacy to increase.
In any kind of education, whether traditional or electronic, it is not possible to be absolutely certain that it is positive.
There are strong indicators and there are weak indicators
Yes, no doubt! In every education system there is some usefulness and limitations. Still those are influential and used by the societies. It may be less or more positive. E-learning in education is influential, need based and situational. It is effective certainly in some extent, though not sole and whole.
