of nearly 70 articles published in electronic journals in Pakistan and are recognized by HEC during
the time period of 2010-2019. The analysis of documented researches reveal that majority of the
research literature related to e-learning during early 2010 to late 2014 were primarily focused on
computer usage, implementation of Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) and
adoption of e-learning models using research designs such as descriptive, survey and mixed
method research whereas the trend shifted towards distance education and e-learning after this
time period. The literature review witnessed many researches during 2015 and 2016 after the
growing interest of students towards this mode of education. However, the researchers have started
giving immense importance to e-learning as the researches begin to publish in social sciences
literature in Pakistan during 2017. As far as 2018-2019 is concerned, the relevance and reliance
on e-learning have augmented as compared to past because e-learning has broadened its roots and
