Abstract: Many academic institutions have relied exclusively on traditional learning, but the sudden outbreak of COVID-19 shook all educational systems by forcing a shift to emergency remote teaching. The purpose of this study is to understand this transformation and consider the concept of an e-learning ecosystem for building sustainable education to overcome COVID-19 or a similar crisis. Therefore, the conceptual research mainly focuses on developing and proposing: 1) the systematic model considering e-learning guidelines and possible scenarios; 2) the model to inquire, classify, design, and evaluate e-learning ecosystems; 3) the matrix to design different e-learning ecosystems; 4) the holistic framework that integrates all the extraordinary measures, protocols, and procedures for the e-learning ecosystem. All these components recognise the changes in academic institutions and will be the foundation for future e-learning ecosystems.
