THE RELEVANCE OF E-LEARNING RESOURCES IN COMPUTER NETWORKS COURSES: AN EVALUATION BASED ON STUDENT PERCEPTIONS

Abstract

This study evaluates the effectiveness of e-learning strategies implemented within the „Computer Networks” course, focusing on student perceptions and outcomes. Based on a post-experimental survey of 98 students, the study examines the relevance and utility of various e-learning resources, including multimedia, interactive simulations, and supplementary materials. The results highlight the significant impact of these resources on students' understanding of complex concepts and the development of essential technical skills for future careers in IT. Students reported high satisfaction with the e-learning tools, emphasizing the importance of multimedia content and practical examples in enhancing their learning experience. Additionally, the frequent use of supplementary resources and the high likelihood of recommending the course to peers underscore the perceived quality and relevance of the provided content. These findings suggest that e-learning strategies, when integrated effectively, not only improve academic performance but align closely with the professional demands of the job market. The study concludes by recommending continuous innovation and optimizing e-learning resources to support practical learning and professional competencies in higher education.
