The use of technology in education has revolutionized learning. Shifting beyond traditional

With e-learning, students can have the access to other universities and academic resource
materials from other countries, thereby broadening the knowledge base of students. Given
these advantages, it is pivotal to deliberate upon the development of technology use in
