Through rigorous data analysis, the study uncovers significant insights into how these variables relate to the attitudes and opinions of learners regarding online education. The findings shed light on which demographic and experiential factors might contribute to positive or negative opinions about online learning. This research contributes to the ongoing discourse surrounding online education and its potential for meeting the diverse needs of learners. By examining the role of specific variables in shaping opinions about online learning, educators and policymakers can gain valuable insights into designing more effective and inclusive online learning environments. The outcomes of this study offer a foundation for future research and practical implications for enhancing the quality and accessibility of online education.
