dc.description.abstractThis mixed method research study examined the relationship of e-learning and curriculum implementation in a Universal Secondary Education (USE) school, in Kyengera sub-county in Wakiso district, Uganda. It was driven by Engestrom ‘s Activity theory. It was guided by three objectives namely; to find out the e-learning tools used in curriculum implementation, to examine the practices of using or integrating e-learning in curriculum implementation, and to assess the influence of e-learning practices on teachers’ curriculum implementation practices. Data was collected using the self-administered questionnaires, interview guides, focus group discussions, and document review analysis from 48 respondents. 10 of them were the school administrators, 28 were the school teachers and 14 were the students. Findings indicated that e-learning was crucial for effectiveness in curricula, but insufficient Personal computers in schools’ hinder teachers' information sources as well as hindering the integration of ICT in teaching and learning. Students lack motivation and task-based technologies are not used. Effective e-learning strategies are essential for competency-based curriculum implementation, and stakeholders must be involved in setting minimal requirements. The influence of e-learning on the implementation of the new competency-based curriculum in a Universal Secondary Education (USE) school environment was found to be minimal. It was also found out that e-learning motivates teachers in a more interactive and effective procedures with students for their success in teaching and learning process. It is therefore recommended that future study should pinpoint obstacles to the acquisition of e-learning materials and teacher incapacity to use them. Comparing secondary educational institutions in Uganda and planning seminars on ICT integration could foster adaptability, skill growth, and globalization.en_US
