“…The standard deviation for the item was below the composite value of 1.186 indicating a smaller spread in response for the item than the variable. This is similar to findings by Odhiambo (2020) who also found out that even though most students lack computing devices, they have skills to use them based on their past interractions.…”

“…Inadequate user-support by the administration, limited interaction between the students and members of faculty, inadequate time for preparing online examination, inaccessible course notes and materials, and limited funds to pay fee and also to buy internet bundles to access online platform were some of the challenges that Mohammed (2020) and Sergey, Sviatlana, E., Kasiet, & gulnara (2021) identified as the major issues that affect implementation of the e-learning with regard to the academics line of the learners.

The Covid-19 pandemic brought about a lot of interference in learning institutions. Universities were not spared by this pandemic, and this brought about a need to reconsider modes of learning which had all along been face-to-face. Online learning has proved itself as a promising instructional medium as well as a prime area for researchers to investigate its effectiveness on learning and pedagogy. Covid-19 provided an avenue to explore the use of technology in learning given that learning institutions were closed indefinitely. Online infrastructure refers to the hardware, software and internet availability in learning institutions that promote distance education or e-learning. This study sought to establish the status of online pedagogical infrastructure in public universities with a focus on Masinde Muliro University of Science and Technology (MMUST). The study adopted a descriptive survey design. The study population comprised of staff and students of MMUST. Stratified sampling was used to get a sample size of 682 respondents. Data was collected using questionnaires, interviews, Learning Management System content analysis, and observations. The study found that the available online pedagogical infrastructure in MMUST was not sufficient to facilitate online learning. Additionally, the findings indicate that majority of the students and lecturers did not have access to necessary online infrastructure. There lacks a clear policy guidelines for online learning. These findings show that MMUST has inadequate requisite ICT infrastructure and skills to enhance successful implementation of online learning. The study therefore recommends a need for public universities to create partnership with the private sector to improve ICT infrastructure to build the necessary capacity and standardize online learning programs. It further recommends that Institution Policymakers need to formulate policies that promote effective online learning across universities.

“…As for the teacher activities, in the context of a distance learning, they could not always respond in a timely manner to the problems that some students have in the process of mastering educational material, for example, when giving a lecture on the Microsoft Teams platform (Cardoso et al, 2017;Dudar et al, 2021;Kokhan et al, 2022;Tretyakova et al, 2022).…”

Образовательные программы и учебные пособия каждой страны Арабского мира разработаны сучётом национальных, этнических, религиозных, исторических, географических, политических,социально-экономических и других особенностей. Однако вследствие внедрения инновационныхтехнологий в образование и развития сети интернет образовательные системы разных стран нуждаютсяв модернизации. Таким образом, в современном мире происходит становление глобальной системыобразования, в которую интегрируются национальные образовательные системы. Географическоеобразование в Сирии и других арабских странах, в частности в Арабской Республике Египет иКоролевстве Саудовская Аравия, которые были выбраны для сравнительного анализа, как одни изпередовых стран по уровню образования, имеет положительный опыт глубокого изучения географииродной страны, воспитания гражданственности и патриотизма, развития у школьников практическихумений, необходимых в жизненных ситуациях. Вместе с тем проблемы школьного географическогообразования в Сирии были объектом только одного исследования, которое проводилось большечетверти века назад. Отсутствие кандидатских и докторских диссертаций, посвящённых развитиюшкольного географического образования Египта и Саудовской Аравии, также свидетельствуют онедостаточной изученности проблемы. Educational programs and textbooks of each country of the Arab world are developed taking intoaccount national, ethnic, religious, historical, geographical, political, socio-economic and other features.However, due to the introduction of innovative technologies in education and the development of the Internet,educational systems in different countries need modernization. Thus, in the modern world, the formation of aglobal education system is taking place, into which national educational systems are integrated. Geographicaleducation in Syria and other Arab countries, in particular in the Arab Republic of Egypt and the Kingdom of SaudiArabia, which were selected for comparative analysis as one of the leading countries in terms of education, hasa positive experience of in-depth study of the geography of their native country, education of citizenship andpatriotism, development of practical skills necessary in life situations for schoolchildren. At the same time, theproblems of school geographical education in Syria were the subject of only one study, which was conductedmore than a quarter of a century ago. The absence of candidate and doctoral dissertations devoted to thedevelopment of school geographical education in Egypt and Saudi Arabia also indicates insufficient knowledgeof the problem.
