AB  - This study examined the impact of e-learning
on academic performance of postgraduate students in
higher institutions in Nigeria. The study adopted a
descriptive survey design. Three research questions
guided the study. The population of the study was
850 respondents, comprises 350 academic lecturers and
500 postgraduate students. The study adopted a simple
random sampling technique to select 20% of the total
population which was 170. The instrument for data
collections was structured questionnaire. The instrument
was validated by three experts, two from the Faculty of
Engineering and one from the Faculty of Education
(Measurement and Evaluation), all from the University of
Nigeria, Nsukka. Data collected were used to determine
the internal consistency and reliability of the instrument
using Cronbach alpha techniques. An overall reliability
coefficient of 0.89 was established. Mean and standard
deviation were used for data analysis. The findings of the
study revealed that e-learning has positive impact on
academic performance of postgraduate students in higher
institutions. The findings of the study revealed challenges
militating against the use of e-learning to enhance
academic performance of postgraduate students in higher
institutions in Nigeria. Based on the findings, the study
recommend among others that government should ensure
a maximum standard set for institutions to get computer
and internet facilities to enhance effective e-learning
process in the higher institutions in Nigeria.
