Advancing, empowering, and reshaping Saudi society through integrating e-learning technology into higher education

This research endeavors to propel, empower, and transform Saudi society through the strategic integration of technology-led e-learning within the higher educational institutions of the Kingdom. With the imminent future of learning heavily reliant on technology, the potential for ubiquitous and on-demand knowledge acquisition is set to revolutionize education in the upcoming decades. Our findings underscore the profound influence of technology-led learning on higher education in Saudi Arabia, establishing its pivotal role in driving societal progress. Central to our investigation is an in-depth exploration of diverse e-learning technologies and their profound implications on advancement and empowerment, ultimately instigating a substantial metamorphosis in the fabric of Saudi society. By affording individuals access to a tailored technology-led e-learning platform, the study envisages a profound restructuring of the populace, fostering a skilled and adaptive citizenry. A notable aspect of our research is the discernment of the government's instrumental role as a mediator in facilitating the adoption and implementation of technology-led e-learning, particularly in segments of society where access to these resources remains limited or absent. This mediation bears relevance in the context of the nation's vision for 2030 and forms a cornerstone of our contributions to inform the Ministry of Education and the Kingdom at large about the prospects of embracing a technology-led e-learning system. Moreover, our study delves into the scope and limitations surrounding the implementation of technology-led e-learning within higher education, effectively charting a course for societal transformation by invigorating the higher education system with innovative pedagogy. In conclusion, our research expands the horizons for Saudi learners and educational institutions alike, creating pathways for connectivity, talent acquisition, and representation on the global stage through the medium of advancing technology-led e-learning in higher education within the Kingdom. & COPY; 2023 The Authors.
