摘要：Best use of Information Communication Technologies (ICT) in education and online instructional capabilities are need of the hour and in coming decade it will be a must have capability for any future university or faculty. E-learning is seen as a catalyst to the evolution of higher education. While e-learning is getting a lot of attention in recent days, at the same time academia is stressing on the need of a mechanism to monitor its use and ensure quality in e-learning practices. E-learning is used in developed and developing countries with different objectives. In some cases more reputed institutes in developed countries are using it to standardize teaching and learning practices. It is also seen as a platform to increase collaborative work and to make it up to international standard. While in developing countries a major use of e-learning platforms is to extend the outreach of education and to minimize the capacity constraints of conventional institution infrastructure. With these diverse applications of e-learning there comes the need for a Quality Management System (QMS) that can be tuned to the overall objective, procedures, processes, resources, outcomes of a particular learning environment. Proposed work studies the existing monitoring and evaluation practices in e-learning environments and suggests a framework that ensures continuous feedback against defined performance indicators. The identification of performance indicators in conducted research work is focused especially on use of e-learning systems in developing countries such as Pakistan.
