E-learning at the Polytechnic of Namibia is underutilized. Students are excited to use E-learning, but access and awareness are limited. We determined ways to improve the implementation of E-learning and its mobile device accessibility. We also produced a tutorial series, formed two student support groups, and developed an awareness plan. We recommend that the PoN use the tools we developed, increase the number of courses using MyPoly, begin a laptop rental program, and create an SMS alert system.
