How universities can make e-learning more effective
A university student using his computer for online learning while at home. Lack of personal attention and guidance on distance learning has seen some learners cut off from their universities.
Kenyan universities have been under pressure from the government to introduce online and blended learning to boost access to higher education. And when Covid-19 hit the country, colleges and universities stopped physical classes and adopted distance learning following a directive by President Uhuru Kenyatta.
However, when the number of positive cases subsided, the government ordered reopening of learning institutions for in-person lesson. While some universities resumed physical learning, some opted for online classes while others chose to blend the two approaches.
