Distance Education as A Model For Applying Légale Technologie

Abstract

The current era is known as the age of technology, having witnessed an information revolution that has impacted all aspects of life, thereby affecting all nations and societies. The significant developments in the field of information technology and communication means have had a profound impact on numerous fields, including higher education, which, in turn, has witnessed a technical and technological revolution. This sector has sought to keep pace with these rapid and immense developments in the field of technology and information exchange.

The widespread use and availability of the Internet have accelerated the educational process, transitioning it from traditional methods of transmitting information and lessons to distance education utilizing various electronic means. However, the distance higher education sector in Algeria continues to face numerous challenges and difficulties. Therefore, it is imperative to evaluate the reality of distance higher education, and to explore the most significant advantages and disadvantages of this type of education. Furthermore, a set of solutions and proposals must be presented to improve the state of distance higher education, especially following the emergence of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, which was the reason for resorting to the concept of receiving lessons remotely on the basis of the suspension of studies in Algerian universities in their customary form. This compelled the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research to adopt the distance education system as a means to compensate for this interruption, and to consider its generalization as an alternative to traditional education.
