Survey Approach

This study examines whether or not the outbreak of Corona Virus under the Jordanian Defense Law considers a legal impossibility "force majeure", and it determines the obligations of private schools in the online teaching with taking into account the satisfaction of students and their guardians. For this purpose, the descriptive survey approach has followed in this research by analyzing (34) questionnaires filled by the students' guardians. From the educational side, the survey has reached that (97%) of the guardians prefer the direct/traditional teaching while (3%) prefer the online method; (65%) believe that the online teaching applied by the private schools did not take care of the various needs of students; (70%) think that non-direct communication (face to face) between the teachers and students was one of the main obstacles in the online teaching; and (90%) see that WhatsApp was the only online way for teaching the courses. From the legal side, the study has reached that the obligations of private schools changed from traditional teaching to online teaching because of the legal impossibility (majeure force) and the applied defense law. By other words, Unlike traditional teaching, the obligations of private schools have changed to online teaching and contacting as a new way since the outbreak of coronavirus.

The Impact

On March 2020 most of the educational institutes in India stopped face to face contact with students as a result of countrywide lockdown which was imposed due to COVID-19 pandemic. The impact of the lockdown has affected the students and cast a shadow on the entire education system. Restrictions have led many universities and colleges to opt for online learning to curtail the spread of Coronavirus. To overcome lockdown, online education became the primary pathway amidst technological challenges. Teachers had possibly more to do than the students and those teachers who were technologically confronted had their limits tested. The students, on the other hand, had myriad challenges to face. The current study draws on the experiences of teachers and students to the introduction of the online learning method during the pandemic.   Qualitative research methods were utilised to answer the research questions.  The study recruited students in the age of 18-25 and teachers in the age of 35-60 years through social media platforms.  Informed consent was obtained, and thereafter the respondents were interviewed via telephone (NAPSWI, 2015). The study additionally utilised and analysed open discussion content of the National Association of Professional Social Workers in India (NAPSWI) webinars relevant to online teaching and their experiences.

Asking Questions

Remote learning, also known as distance education, can be defined as teaching the students with no face-to-face contact with the teacher in class. Once the Coronavirus spread, globally imposed measures became more and more restrictive leading to a major difficulty for the educational systems: identifying fast solutions to the issue of suspending the classes and lectures in-person. The techniques of online and distance learning also needed changes to fulfill the needs of teachers and students, such as presentation, communication, asking questions and formulating answers, practicing the theory through various exercises, testing and feedback. There are several good practices popular now in online education, some of which are described throughout this article. Developing a complete set of skills in students is fundamental for facilitating the educational process and integrating them in the study and/or working groups, but also for preparing them for real life. This article presents some of the most important abilities to take into account by the educational system. However, most recommendations from instructors teaching online are presence-themed. Establishing a strong connection and feeling part of a supportive community is vital for students. Using video or Skype, video announcements instead of text, using the phone are all ways to a faster connection whenever doubts or questions arise. In addition, training and agility are on top of the priorities list: using technologies that help in achieving teaching objectives; teaching online does not mean that materials once used face-to-face are uploaded on an online platform; training is key whereas technology cannot work and there is a need for a back-up plan.

In order to explore good teaching methods, the traditional teaching model and online teaching mode were compared and their own characteristics were analyzed. The results showed that two modes should be combined in order to better adapt to the current development of education rather than be not a single. Engineering drawing is a skill required of the basic course for engineering students. For many years, however, the blackboard, wall charts, models and other traditional teaching skills are very limited. With the rapid development of the electronics, information and communication technology, the online counseling system should be established without delay. Teachers and students, students and students can communicate well in the traditional teaching mode. Teachers can answer questions in time, however, the efficiency of class is low, and students cannot easily understand. Multimedia Network Teaching can improve teaching efficiency and enhance student interest in learning, which is important to the students’ spatial imagination. At the beginning, there are still something unsatisfactory.

Online education is a rapidly growing phenomenon for teachers. With the outbreak of COVID-19, there are changes in all societies worldwide, and a forcible shift in the medium of teaching and learning is inevitable. This paper explored the social science teachers' lived experiences in a Chinese school during the COVID-19 Pandemic. This qualitative study utilized the phenomenological approach to explore the lived experiences of eight full-time and tenured social science teachers determined using purposive sampling.  The data were collected from the participants using an in-depth semi-structured interview. Meanwhile, the recursive textual analysis guided by the three C's of Lichtman was employed to analyze the data thematically.  The findings show that social science teachers faced challenges in online teaching such as personal, technical, and teaching strategies.  It also found that the teachers have difficulty motivating students to participate in the online class activities and submission of outputs.  Despite the challenges, the teachers were able to surmount the difficulties because of the support of the administration and their fellow teachers.  Generally, the unfolding of online teaching challenges confronted by school heads, teachers, and students will make them resilient to adapt and embrace virtual education.

This paper presents a discussion on the effectiveness of online teaching and learning of PEdP in accordance with the new norm. To do so, a study was conducted among the undergraduate students of Universiti Malaysia Sabah (UMS). The matters examined include the objectives, curriculum, and methods of teaching and learning. The study shows that the fundamental aims and objectives of this course were achieved despite being thought entirely online but it is expected that both goals and objectives can be highly achieved vita the application of traditional teaching and learning method of face to face teaching and learning activities.
