The COVID-19 Pandemic is the characterizing worldwide wellbeing emergency within recentmemory.

among third world country the availability of infra structure for hybrid study is not
well developed, as consequence many hurdles and barriers are being faced by students,
this has also been seen during covid-19 too. Distance E-learning in medical education may
represent a suitable alternative to traditional learning to deliver high-quality
education. The availability of essential infrastructures and efficient institutional
strategies represent a major challenge for integrating distance learning in medical
education.
During the pandemic, instructors and teaching staff were required to adapt quickly to the
rapid transition in the education process and depend completely on the online platforms
available, to deliver their courses, exams, and other required teaching and learning
activities. While rapid transition to distance online learning was a mandatory and
necessary action to ensure the learning continuity during the COVID-19 pandemic, it was
not always a smooth process, that posed many challenges for instructors, learners.
Distance E-Learning is defined as using technology to deliver training, including
technology supported learning either online, offline, or both. It is aimed at the
effective construction of knowledge regarding individual experience, practice, and
knowledge of the learners and students. Internet-based learning, computer-based learning,
