The Role of the Total Quality Management Strategy to Improve the E-Learning System in Light of Climate Changes for a Sustainable Educational System for Higher Education Institutions

Abstract

This study examines the relationship between the Total Quality Management Strategy (STQM) variable and the E-Learning System (ELS) variable in the context of climate change. The aim is to develop a sustainable educational system and effectively incorporate technological improvements at the University of Kufa. This will be achieved by surveying the perspectives of various individuals. The teaching staff at the university and its colleges used the random sample approach and utilized statistical tables to investigate the population of 2262 teaching staff members. The study determined that the ideal sample size comprises 327 teaching staff members. Of the sent surveys, 20 were not received, and 12 were incomplete. Therefore, 295 questionnaires that met the criteria were used for statistical analysis. The findings demonstrated a considerable and favorable impact of the entire quality management approach on the e-learning system. We found that implementing comprehensive quality control in the e-learning system is efficacious and should be used. The effectiveness of the e-learning system in higher education depends on implementing comprehensive quality management. Several suggestions have been put forth to enhance the standard of higher education in Iraq and establish a sustainable educational system amidst the challenges posed by climate change. When formulating comprehensive strategic plans for quality management, all faculty members must exert maximum effort in attaining total quality management. This can be achieved by contributing beneficial ideas and implementing advanced educational programs while adapting academic curricula to anticipate the effects of climate change.
