The impact distant education on female educational attainment

Аннотация

Education has a tremendous impact on an individual's mental and financial development since it enables them to make a meaningful contribution to society. Female education becomes more crucial in these circumstances. The study was a quantitative and survey-based research project. Master's degree students enrolled at Allama Iqbal Open University (AIOU) from the spring semester of 2018 to the spring semester of 2019; all AIOU postgraduate teacher education program tutors; academicians in distance education and formal education; and all AIOU students were included in this study. Due to a shortage of funding and the study's length and breadth, only four locations were able to be studied. Each area was given 75 students from 300 students in related programs. To get a random sample of 100 instructors, 25 were selected from each location. Researchers used questionnaires as data collection tools. The data were analyzed using SPSS. The findings demonstrate that women who live in rural areas have profited from online education.
