Abstract

Worldwide, tech spending was approximately $4 trillion in 2019. In 2020, all successful global universities are using a wide variety of information systems platforms to adapt to the global COVID-19 pandemic. Universities are using the rapid constant changes in information technology to alleviate the COVID-19 crisis. During the COVID-19 pandemic, almost all universities in North America, Europe, Australia, and New Zealand conducted classes through online and virtual instruction. Unfortunately, most universities in Nigeria/Africa are not able to adapt to the global COVID-19 pandemic, and universities in Nigeria in 2020 were completely closed for classes. To help address this issue, the authors conducted their research. In addition, using the stakeholder theory, they developed the online education and virtual collaboration model. The model provides insights and understanding on how to develop online courses and classes effectively and efficiently in Nigeria/Africa. The study has significant research and practical implications.
