Abstract
E-learning pedagogy is one of the most recent methods used by instructors in the undergraduate level at the colleges worldwide. Students benefit from e-learning instruction by having better grasp of information. In the present work, e-learning was used in a postgraduate course in the College of Engineering at UAE University to motivate students in educational materials required for Chemical Engineering Department. The initiative started after a successful experience in an undergraduate course. Therefore the present research was done as an attempt to replicate the study and test it for postgraduate courses. All students were asked to submit assignments in the shape of e-learning to produce educational materials of different course topics. The collected and analyzed feedbacks showed that students have interesting ideas and approaches to reach the desired target. This experience revealed positive response as well as potential to many promising aspects that can be used in the future to develop similar assignments for the enhancement of student’s knowledge

Implementing educational e-learning in pedagogy has been under investigation to boost outcomes especially for the undergraduate education, whether in term of individual or collaborative learning
On the other hand, adopting e-learning for the postgraduate courses has witnessed a progressive development in this direction, especially in the engineering education
Summary
The revolution of computer technologies as well as the internet has their impressive impact on our life by all means and standards, whether in its positive or negative consequences. On the other hand, adopting e-learning for the postgraduate courses has witnessed a progressive development in this direction, especially in the engineering education. In a collaborative and autonomous way, Martín-Gutiérrez et al [11] combine every learning process from the Electrical machines course in the electrical engineering degree This allowed interactive and autonomous studying as well as the collaborative performance of laboratory practices with other students and without a teacher’s assistance. By coupling the advantages of collaborative and mobile learning, the teaching-learning processes involved in postgraduate courses may be greatly enhanced. The availability of 3G and 4G technologies coupled with tablet PCs and smartphones makes the communication and learning system easier [17] In engineering education, these sophisticated technologies can bring immense advantages to the methods of delivering and acquiring knowledge. A survey was conducted to assess the experience gained by the students and the results were analyzed and discussed
