In the last decade, due to factors of ICT infrastructural and
broadband maturation, rising levels of educational attainment and
computer literacy, and diversification strategies, e-learning has
exploded in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.
However, significant barriers remain in the region's e-learning
development: lack of research on outcomes and effectiveness,
paucity of Arabic language learning objects, monopolies and high
cost of telecommunications, cultural taboos, accreditation,
censorship, and teacher training. This unique volume is the first
comprehensive effort to describe the history, development, and
current state of e-learning in each of the 20 MENA countries from
Algeria to Yemen. Each entry is expertly written by a specialist
who is acutely familiar with the state of e-learning in their
respective country, and concludes with a bibliography of key
reports, peer-reviewed books and articles, and web resources.
E-Learning in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) proves itself
as a vital compendium for a wide readership that includes academics
and students, transnational program directors, international
education experts, MENA government departments, commercial vendors
and investors, and ICT development and regulatory agencies involved
in e-learning in the Middle East.
