It also discusses the reality of distance learning in Algeria, highlighting the specific challenges it faces, particularly those related to weak digital infrastructure, lack of training, and differences in digital skills. The study concludes with a set of recommendations aimed at reducing the digital divide and strengthening digital capacities to enhance the quality of higher education
