E-learning is a learning process which aims to create an interactive learning environment based on the use of computers and the internet. Through e-learning, learners can access resources and information from anywhere and at anytime. Many higher education institutions have expressed an interest in implementing e-learning, and e-learning readiness is a critical aspect in achieving successful implementation. Higher education institutions should therefore assess their readiness before initiating an e-learning project. E-learning readiness involves many components of e-learning, including students, lecturers, technology and the environment, which must be ready in order to formulate a coherent and achievable strategy. One of the aspects of e-learning readiness is technological readiness, which plays an important role in implementing an effective and efficient e-learning project. This paper explores the gaps in the knowledge about the technological aspects of e-learning readiness through the conduct of a literature review. In particular, the review focuses on the models that have been developed to assess e-learning readiness.</span></p>

Summary

Introduction

Information and communication technology has created new opportunities to improve the existing education systems and learning styles, and has helped to develop and innovate new and effective teaching and learning methods (Salem, 2006). It has helped to develop many modern concepts and tools in the field of education, such as e-learning. E-learning helps to increase the flexibility of the educational process and facilitate communications and interactions between teachers and students. The provision of this service on the internet makes it available and easy to use by most students anytime and anywhere through the use of their personal computers. E-learning plays a prominent role in the field of education but faces a number of challenges that hinder the achievement of its objectives (Najib & Rebhi, 2006)
