Distance Learning and Challenges of Technologies by Students in Uganda
Journal Title: International Journal of Current Science Research and Review - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 10
Abstract
This study was conducted to examine the challenges students face in Uganda when it comes to distance learning. Uganda is a developing country and this has put a strain on the resources available to students in terms of access to technology. Therefore, this study looks to understand the challenges that students in Uganda have experienced in the shift to distance learning and the strategies that students have used to cope. A non-probability sampling technique of snowball was used to identify initial participants who meet the research criteria. In all, thirty (30) students across all levels of education in Kampala district were selected. The results showed that the majority of students reported experiencing some form of challenges related to distance learning. The most commonly reported challenges were technical problems with the learning platform and lack of access to the internet. The results of this study can inform policy decisions to better equip students and teachers for effective teaching-learning program across various educational institutions.
