Quality education in Algerian universities torn between traditional teaching practices, unfamiliarity with information communication technologies and e- learning

Abstract EN

This article aims at exploring quality education in Algerian Higher Education focusing on teaching practices, attitudes towards technologies, and acquaintance with e-leaning usages.

To collect data, a questionnaire had been administered to twenty teachers of different subjects.

This methodological tool targeted three main aspects which directly influence quality education: teaching practices, technology, pedagogical beliefs, and perceptions of e-learning.

The findings revealed that the status quo of quality education in Algerian universities is torn between traditional teaching practices and unfamiliarity with information communication technologies, namely towards e-learning.

This paper, by means of highlighting the already-mentioned shortcomings, tries to suggest certain propositions to affectively and appropriately use e-leaning platforms so as to assist quality education in Algerian Higher Education.
