17. e-Research: Conclusion
9/8/2019 17
E-Research is useful to
explore any
researchable issue on
and about ICT,
(computer technology,
the World Wide Web
or the Internet.)
In education, e-
Research is better
option in the field of
open/distance
education, and the
Internet mediated
teaching and learning
context.
The connection of e-
Researcher with non-

of life for wellbeing of
humanity through
research is always
important.
Future : Research is
no Research without
e-Research.
