Digital Education and the Quality of Scientific Research

Abstract

Information and communication technologies (ICTs) have triggered an enormous revolution that has turned all areas of life upside down, be they economic, social or even cultural, and information technologies have become a major locomotive for all progress and development.

Among the areas most affected by the digital revolution is higher education, where the era of digital knowledge has imposed major challenges on the higher education sector to move beyond traditional educational approaches towards what is now known as digital or e-education, which is now seen as an unavoidable necessity, particularly in times of disasters and pandemics (Corona pandemic), which have demonstrated the failure and inability of traditional education to keep pace with the educational process in the prevailing electronic environment.

On the basis of the above, this study aims to highlight the role of digital teaching in scientific research as a fundamental strategy for meeting the challenges and achieving the quality of scientific research, by addressing the justifications for using this type of modern teaching, and by taking a look at the reality of the educational process in the Moroccan university, which in turn is not immune to technological development, and must therefore benefit from this development, especially in the light of the challenges facing the implementation of digital teaching at university, in order to develop and improve the quality of digital teaching and move towards what is known as the intelligent university.
