description The present survey examines the intersection of methodological advancements and technological innovations in e-learning, emphasizing their transformative impact on modern education. It systematically explores instructional design frameworks, adaptive learning systems, immersive technologies, and data-driven analytics, highlighting their role in fostering personalized, scalable, and inclusive learning environments. Through the integration of pedagogical theories with advanced tools like artificial intelligence (AI), augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR), this study demonstrates how e-learning systems enhance engagement, retention, and accessibility. The survey addresses critical challenges such as the digital divide, data privacy, and resistance to adoption, offering evidence-based strategies to mitigate these issues. It underscores the importance of bridging equity gaps while maintaining scalability and sustainability, particularly in underserved regions. By synthesizing state-of-the-art research and practical applications, this work provides actionable insights into the future of e-learning, advocating for a balanced approach to innovation that aligns technological capabilities with the diverse needs of global learners. The findings contribute to the broader discourse on sustainable, inclusive, and effective digital education ecosystems.
