Abstract
The world has become a global village where information could be obtained just by a click. While the use of electronic device is well recognised by the social world, it is still under-utilised by academes, especially in developing countries. There is a sharp contrast in the statistics of users on social media (more than half a million on monthly basis) with those on academic media. The variance is not only reflected in online academic media but also in the acquisition and transmission of E-Information in Nigerian schools. This paper examines the quality of E-Education in Nigeria. Expanding on what the quality of E-Education entails, the overview of education without electronic facilities is analysed. The availability, usage and the impact of inculcating Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in learning also form a part of the discussion. The paper concludes with recommendations on the way forward to maximise the use of electronic facilities and improve the standard of education in Nigeria.
