Post-Pandemic Higher Education: Arabic Universities

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has provided us with an opportunity to consider how we can improve higher education. This study looked at how Arab universities have dealt with the pandemic and how they see higher education after it is over. The study discovered that many lessons learned during the forced adoption of distance education will be used by universities to improve and expand their online learning offerings. This shift will be driven by university investments in distance education as well as increased familiarity with e-learning among students, faculty, and institutions. If face-to-face classrooms do not return, the study predicts that more sophisticated forms of hybrid campuses will be a more appropriate model for the future.
