 Education system is upgrading these days with advance technologies that are from conventional learning to E-learning and this is relevant for learner as it is providing flexibility in learning with optional choices for study to the learner with unlimited access of information. E-learning is the effective tools of teaching and learning process these days and different universities of Nepal also broadly adopting this E-learning strategy and offering for distance education or online learning. Here we study the educational situation of rural areas of Nepal comparing to urban areas as well as the barriers of E-learning. The purpose of this paper is to show the changing of learning process from the conventional learning to E-learning in the rapidly changing world and to provide a view of the state of E-learning in Nepal focusing on impact and challenges. It aims to integrate a review of literature to provide a high level comparative view of the state of education system with E-learning. From the studies of all these, we will find the impact and challenges of E-learning as well as why the higher educational institute broadly adopting the E-learning strategy.Journal of the Institute of Engineering, 2017, 13(1): 10-19
