Implications of Online University in Afghanistan

Academic Paper from the year 2022 in the subject Pedagogy - Higher Education, grade: 1.7, Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences, language: English, abstract: The backbone of development in a country is education. It makes the nation more visionary, increases men¿s and women¿s participation, increases socialization, and creates a healthy society. At the time of war and in post-conflict situations, education has implications and challenges with social and political turbulence. This paper discusses the implications of an alternative approach in higher education as e-learning or distance learning within a war-stricken context through a literature review. This paper brings e-learning case studies from Ukraine and Saudi Arabia. It then shifts toward Afghanistan, with a significant focus on Afghanistan¿s diverse problems that led to the proposal of establishing AOU by WUS.
