Abstract:
The internet has become the vehicle for success for many
organizations including the education sector, although at the
expense of the work force which has continuously reduced
due to many activities initially performed by human beings
done over the net. The e-learning mode is currently being
adopted by many institutions of learning particularly where
the classrooms are large and/or the distances to the
institution of choice are long. Many lecturers are resistant to
this method since they believe it will render them redundant.
This paper has evaluated the e-learning method and how it
could be used to support research development by reducing
the time and enormous finances spent on face-to-face mode
of teaching and redistribute them to research development at
no extra cost. This will lead to plenty of innovation and
increased research output, economic and social
development
