Abstract

During crises, society must adopt a transformative process, regardless of the difficulties and problems it may present. The recent pandemic has swiftly and significantly affected all facets of individuals' life, encompassing their daily routines, jobs, and social connections, both locally and globally. This study examines the educational sector to demonstrate the substantial transformations taking place in higher education institutions. The impetus for these alterations is the pressing necessity to digital their pedagogical approaches. This transformation presents hurdles for instructors; some possess insufficient technological proficiency for online instruction, whereas others are adequately prepared. To maintain competitiveness and provide superior education amid swift digital transformation, disruptive technological advancements, and constant fluctuations, it is imperative for universities and higher education institutions to proactively confront these problems. This study examines the challenges and concerns universities face in achieving their goals, along with the technology tools and tactics they have implemented to transform higher education in response to the C-19 epidemic. The discussion and conclusion offer a succinct summary of essential themes that can enhance the digitisation of education. It is expected that the upcoming time will be marked by the dominance of online services and the necessity to adjust to the changing technological environment.
