Abstract

With the introduction of the Internet and other types of electronic communication and information distribution, online education has developed over the course of its development, with four major periods in the process. E-learning's growing popularity in business, management, and education has contributed to increased levels of both productivity and efficiency in these fields. It also gives students the opportunity to learn at their own pace, gives them more control over their schedules and locations, reduces the costs of infrastructure and transportation, and saves money. The implementation of e-learning is a time-consuming and complicated process that requires information technology, emotional intelligence, and human resources. It is important to approach it in a logical manner because it might have both positive and bad consequences. This study demonstrates the factors that are necessary for e-learning, as well as the theoretical literature evaluation and the good and negative effects of e-learning.
