The study has 100 samples for faculty members and undergraduate students in Ar-Rass college of Science and Arts, male Departments at Qassim University. The study indicates that the main factors that obstruct the E-learning is the financial support from saving advanced PC's, labs, and establishing strong computer network, adding to the weakness of some faculty members and student to English language. The study focused in the suggested solution for the problem by applying the Electronic subjects, and imposes the whole faculty members to prepare at least one course in Electronic form.
