The e-learning sites for professionals enable them to sharpen their knowledge and skills in their geographical region itself. In particular, the professionals in the medical field who is servicing to the community need not to relocate themselves from service for learning or updating their knowledge & skills. Thus, E-learning not only benefits the professional learners to update or upgrade their knowledge & skills and also helps the community in getting a continuing service. This paper aims to study the usage of e-learning sites among Ophthalmologists – Eye Doctors. A survey method is used to obtain the ophthalmologists’ usage of the e-learning sites. This particular study is a part of the ongoing study “Information Needs, Sources and Seeking Behaviour of Ophthalmologists in Academic Eye Hospitals in India”. A structured questionnaire is randomly distributed among the ophthalmologists in Aravind Eye Hospital, Pondicherry, India and 39 ophthalmologists responded as e-learning users. Among the 39 ophthalmologists, 56.4% are male and 43.6% are female. A t-test is conducted to find out is there any no significant difference between the e-learning sites usage score and gender. The p-value (0.772) shows that there is no significant difference between the usage score with gender. 33.3% of ophthalmologists are in the age group less than or equal to 30. 48.7% of ophthalmologists are in the age group between 31 to 40. 17.9% of ophthalmologists are in the age group between 41 to 50. ANOVA is conducted to find out is there any no significant difference between the e-learning sites usage score and age groups. The p-value (0.762) shows that there is a significant difference between the usage score with age groups. The frequency table derived from the ophthalmologists’ responses shows that Aurosiksha is the most popular e-learning site which holds the first rank and Eyerounds holds the second rank. The noumber of e-learning site usage per ophthalmologist is ranging from a single e-learning site to five different e-learning sites | en_US |
