E-learning has accelerated in
higher education institutes to support effective learning in the context of
lifelong learning.
The University of Petra has
realised the importance of E-learning early. Thus, the E-Learning Centre was
established in 2012, and even prior to that, e-learning systems were used in
some faculties as early as 2003.
The E-learning centre is an
independent unit that operates according to regulatory instructions No. (34)
for the year 2016. It aims to achieve the university’s goals in improving the
teaching methods using modern technology, and increase the effectiveness of the
learning process.
