Abstract

This study aimed to identify the difficulties that hinder the implementation of e-learning. This study used the descriptive design using the quantitative approach by using a questionnaire as a study tool after confirming its degree of validity and reliability. The random sample that was (724) chosen among supervisors, teachers and students from the Libyan high school Nalut, for the academic year 2018-2019.

And all the difficulty level was high, as the total areas of the tool got an arithmetic average (3.73), and this indicates that the level of difficulties that prevent the application of e-learning in teaching chemistry to high school students from the point of view of supervisors, teachers and students is high.
