Avicenna e-learning unit at the Faculty of physical education and sports sciences for girls – University of Baghdad

Brief Overview of the Unit

With the spread of modern communication methods, the concept of e-learning has emerged, which refers to education using modern communication tools such as computers, the Internet, and multimedia, or distance learning, achieving the greatest benefits with minimal time and effort. The project was first initiated by the European Union and UNESCO in 2002 and was implemented from 2002 to 2006. There are different types of e-learning, including synchronous e-learning, where students and instructors are present at the same time in front of electronic screens, allowing for direct discussions through chat rooms or virtual classrooms. One of the main advantages of this type of learning is that students receive instant information, and it saves commuting time to the study location. However, it has drawbacks, as it requires modern electronic devices and a good network connection.

This unit was established at the college in 2018 based on a letter from the University of Baghdad. The following individuals have managed the unit since its establishment:

  1. Prof. Dr. Iqbal Abdul Hussein Nima – Head (from 2023 to present)

  2. Assoc. Prof. Dr. Noor Hatem Rida Al-Haddad – Member (from 2019 to present)

  3. Assist. Prof. Ghufran Bashir Abdul Razzaq – Member (from 2023 to present)

  4. Assist. Prof. Maryam Abdul Jabbar Khudhair – Member (from 2023 to present)
