Abstract

This chapter aims to explain the overview of electronic learning (e-learning); the emerging trends in e-learning; the important factors of e-learning; the relationships among e-learning quality, learning satisfaction, and learning motivation; the implementation of e-learning; the approaches and barriers to e-learning utilization; e-learning for medical and nursing education; and the significance of e-learning in modern education. When compared to the traditional mode of classroom learning, there is clear evidence that e-learning brings faster delivery, lower costs, more effective learning, and lower environmental impact in the modern learning environments. E-learning allows each individual to tackle the subject at their own pace, with interactive tasks being set in place to ensure a thorough understanding throughout each module. The chapter argues that utilizing e-learning has the potential to increase educational performance and reach strategic goals in modern education.
