E-Learning Platforms and the Pedagogy of Islamic Law in Nigerian Universities
Main Article Content
Abstract
The development of the digital world has become both a convenience and a challenge in Islamic Studies at higher education institutions. This qualitative research aims to describe the role of the e-learning system in the teaching and learning of Islamic law at Nigerian universities. The study examines how the virtual learning environment, learning management systems, video conferencing tools, and digital repositories influence pedagogical strategies, student engagement, access to classical and contemporary texts, as well as the process of scholarly interpretation. The study concludes that e-learning systems are increasingly becoming an essential element in Islamic law education, thus transforming the way students access information, interact with course materials, and engage with classmates and instructors. This study's contribution emphasizes that the flexibility of asynchronous learning can help students actively, adaptively, and contextually learn Islamic law material.
