Among the learning technologies, Web-based learning offers several benefits over conventional classroom-based learning. Its biggest advantage is the reduced costs since a physical environment is no longer required, and therefore, it can be used at any time and place at the convenience of the student. The present paper studies the student perception on impact of e-content projects of MHRD. Findings indicate that students agree with the fact that e-learning systems provide benefit by improving content and delivery, with anytime, anywhere access; increase student interaction with other learners; improve teaching pedagogy; make learning more interesting; and will improve learning outcomes.

Its biggest advantage is the reduced costs since a physical environment is no longer required, and therefore, it can be used at any time and place at the convenience of the student. The present paper studies the student perception on impact of e-content projects of MHRD. Findings indicate that students agree with the fact that e-learning systems provide benefit by improving content and delivery, with anytime, anywhere access; increase student interaction with other learners; improve teaching pedagogy; make learning more interesting; and will improve learning outcomes.
