The query "( Virtual -Learning OR E-Learning OR online learning) AND (challenges))" was used to retrieve recordswithin the title, keywords, and abstract fields with no date restrictions since we wanted to find outas many articles on this topic as possible. References of the included articles were backwardtracked,and Google Scholar was searched to identify extra potentially relevant articles. Theliterature search was conducted on January ۹, ۲۰۲۱. Three hundred and twenty-five records wereretrieved from the literature search, with ۵۶ retained after removing duplicates. After a detailedscreening and selection process, ۳۲ articles were selected.Results: The results showed that the most critical virtual learning challenges in developingcountries were in six Item ۱. Technical (Lack of proper telecommunications infrastructure, Lack ofnecessary electronic standards, hardware and software, reduced information security) ۲. Cultural(attitude of second-rate education) ۳. virtual -learning skills (unfamiliarity with the virtual learning environment, low hardware and software literacy) ۴.
