Exploring the outcomes of e-learning transformation in higher education: the case of Croatia

The COVID 19 pandemic has triggered educational institutions in Croatia to engage in different forms of distance learning, thus utilizing electronic learning (e-learning) technologies. E-learning refers to the phenomenon of utilizing electronic technologies to access educational curriculum outside of a traditional classroom. By conducting a study on the University of Zagreb’s response to the COVID 19 pandemic – we propose to examine the challenges and outcomes of e-learning transformation processes. By elearning transformation, we refer to the process in which educational institutions fully and/or partially transfer their teaching to an online platform. In order to study the impact of the e-learning transformation, we explored how e-learning transformation influences the quality of learning and the achievements of learning outcomes. Although there exists a significant body of literature on the relationship between education quality and learning outcome achievement, we still lack insights into the nature of this relationship in the context of e-learning transformation. The aim of this paper is to measure quality and learning outcomes achievement of the e-learning transformation process as it unfolds. An added strength is that we will be able to develop new, practitioner-friendly prescriptive solutions for educators and policymakers, which they can use in order to successfully implement e-learning transformations.
