Systems Research and Behavioral Science

Question: Discuss about the Systems Research and Behavioral Science. Answer: Introduction: With the advancement of the modern day technology, its application within the education sector has become highly popular. This has all together introduced a new form of education and it is mainly done with the help of the latest forms of electronic gadgets and equipments. In general the e-learning is referred to any forms of degree education that is completely delivered in the online basis (Kattoua et al., 2016). This form of education is believed to be one of the best forms of education in the context of recent times as it is cost effective and can be availed from all from any parts of the globe. Nevertheless, as it is with all forms of modern technology, the electronic form of education is also associated with some major challenges. According to Wright (2010), it is highly challenging for most of the students and instructors to switch from traditional forms of learning and prepare their mindset with the new form. Moreover, there are many educators, who strongly believe in the traditional forms and are highly resistive towards the change. The lack of awareness among the people due to unavailability of proper training with the use of the electronic gadgets is regarded as one of the issues in this context. Framing of the Research questions The aim of this current literature is to address the questions related to the research topic. With the help of the research question, it is possible to deal with the issues that are related with the current research topic. What are the main advantages of electronic form of learning than the traditional learning? What are the issues and drawbacks that are faced by the electronic form of learning? How is issues related to electronic learning can be resolved, which will help all the educators and learners to get full benefit of the modern form of education? Scope of the literature review The current literature will discuss all the issues related to the electronic learning and also try to provide necessary relevant solutions. The research is done by conducting systemic review of existing literature related to the e-learning. All the previously conducted research work related to the electronic devices that are used to improve education is included in the study. On the other hand, the research works that are done on electronic devices, which are not used for education purpose, are not included in the current study. The study will also highlight on the importance of training programs that are used to improve the skills of the learners and educators. Selection of databases for conducting Research and assessing the quality of study For the current literature, all the major databases related electronic and academic researches are included. The Science Direct and Scopus are the major relevant databases that are used in the purpose of searching relevant information related to the research topic. The databases that are selected are of high reliable and thus standard quality of evidence can be expected from these sources. The evidences that are collected from the relevant databases are summarized properly will help to address the issues and challenges that are faced by the electronic form of learning. It will also be possible to address the gaps that exist in the existing literature related to the electronic learning. Conducting of literature review In spite of the modern advancement of electronic technology, the major challenge related to the application of electronic learning has been the resistance that is shown by the traditional educators and learners (Persico et al., 2014). The recent studies that are conducted by Kattoua et al., (2016), have showed the application of e-learning not only depends on the use of electronic gadgets, but also on the individual factors that include the social culture and behavior of the people. According to the research work of Tan et al., (2014), the use of the latest electronic form of education has helped the students of remote parts of the globe to get access to the latest trends and information related to the respective domain of education. On the other hand, Cox (2013), has highlighted upon the fact that long-term exposure to the electronic devices that are used in the education have caused chronic diseases among the learners that includes eye sight problems. The learners also deprived of the real-time interaction with the teachers, which is an important part of the all forms of education. The current literature do not however, focuses on increasing the awareness of the educators, which is regarded as the major gap and that needs to addressed for better future prospect of the e-learning.
