How Big Data Phenomenon Impact and Improve the e-Learning Process

With the emergence of Big Data, the exploitation of information has become such a direct and rapid action that many questions arise about the reliability and value of data. However, the data raised by online search engines is based on a varied and massive environment, which includes varied data and from different sources of information. Indeed, in the field of distance education (e-Learning) and in particular during online research, the learner is faced with a massive mixture of data which does not exist in an ordered format and which is not easy to operate. This variety of data represents the second V in Big Data. In order to support learners in their search for information, it is proposed to design a specialized tool to combine these massive and varied data so that they can provide the appropriate result to the learner. This article deals with the descriptive study of the current state of the use of online research in the Big Data environment by the students of the UAE (Abdelmalek Essaadi University), and to highlight the advantages and impacts of this phenomenon on learning and scientific research.
