Abstract:
"
The study conducted addresses the impact of the e-learning curriculum challenges on the
academic performance of undergraduate students in Informatics Institute of Technology
(IIT). The analysis was conducted based on quantitative data and qualitative data obtained
through primary research by collecting data from 116 undergraduate students at IIT who
responded to the online questionnaire and interviews conducted with 4 undergraduate
students and 1 academic lecturer at IIT. The findings formulated according to each
objective revealed that students of IIT find online learning to be more challenging than
traditional learning modalities due to various challenges identified in relation to
technology, motivation, communication with lecturers and peers, content delivery, online
assessments and the overall learning effectiveness. It was proved through theoretical
concepts and data findings on how these challenges have a significant impact on the
academic performance of students. Further, recommendations for IIT on restructuring the
online learning process, utilizing different content models and adopting new practices to
enhance the value gained in the e-learning curriculum for high academic performance are
provided"
