Description

This study investigates the role of green technology in promoting sustainable development through e-learning at Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University, Saudi Arabia. It addresses the contributions of green technology to environmental awareness, quality of education, and green infrastructure. A descriptive-analytical approach was employed, surveying 217 faculty members from various disciplines to explore their perceptions of green technology's role and the challenges faced in its implementation. The study revealed a high level of awareness among faculty regarding the role of green technology in sustainability. However, significant challenges were identified, including technical, financial, and cultural barriers. Gender, college type, and academic rank influenced perceptions of these challenges. The findings suggest that targeted strategies are needed to overcome the barriers to integrating green technologies in higher education. The study highlights the importance of institutional support in fostering the adoption of green technologies to promote sustainable practices.
