Allah Nawaz, Ghulam Muhammad Kundi
There are documented differences between the success and failure factors in the developed and developing countries with regard to the development and use of eLearning in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). These differences are widely attributed to the demographic variations in the context of eLearning development and use. Unless these differences are skillfully identified and accommodated as such into the development and use models, eLearning efforts are reported to be associated with problems in the construction, use and progress of the eLearning environments in the institutions for teaching, learning and administrative purposes. This study is an exploration of the demographic diversities in the HEIs of NWFP, Pakistan to document their impacts on perceptions of the teachers, students and administrators about the nature and roles of eTeaching, eLearning and eEducation.
