Through this work, based on research works concerning e-learning in particular works dealing with e_learning project management systems, adaptive hypermedia systems and decision-making systems on the one hand. Work on the impact of project-based learning on self-regulation in teaching and the design of pedagogical scenarios for classical education and in particular for modular online education on the other hand. Our work concerns the design and scripting of a modular online education by proposing different possible scenarios according to the nature of the learning or assessment activities linked to a learning situation without taking into account the nature of the discipline and the nature of the concept to be addressed.

This research work explores the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on classrooms teaching in school and colleges and on finding e-learning solution to ensure the continuity of the teaching process. The physical presence of the student in the classroom has been hampered by the COVID-19 pandemic. The only way in which the classes can continue is through online teaching programmes. This research tries to examine how effective is online teaching in a higher educational institution in Oman and worldwide. Here we will see the three dimensions of online education, namely (a) preparation, (b) execution, and (c) verification. Verification leads to negative and positive results. These results reflect real-life experiences and ideas shared by the stakeholders, the instructors, and the students who participate in online classes. We will also explain and examine various challenges and solutions involved in making this system more effective. This study gives us an insight into the mechanism, dimensions, and strategies of E-learning.

The Covid-19 pandemic has invaded almost the entire planet. Thisdisease forced the Jordanian education and university system to make a sudden transition from traditional classroom teaching / learning to a virtual world in which teachers and learners found themselves faced with previously inexperienced technological tools. These digital platforms have changed people's perception of the teaching / learning of foreign languages and cultures.This article evaluated the preparation and the perception towards the e-learning and the impact of the latter on teachers and learners of French as a foreign language, while using two questionnaires.15teachers and 60students answered the questionnaires. The results showed that 15% of teachers and 70% of learners have the computer skills required for the use and the integration of digital tools during lessons. 25% of teachers and 71% of learners rated the transition from traditional lessons to digital lessons as easy. Most of the participants (70% of teachers and 85% of students) felt that online teaching / learning allowed more flexibility despite the fact that these respondents preferred classical education in the classroom.A minority of students said that switching to e-learning due to health conditions made them feel lonely (11.77%), anxious (7.31%) and depressed (10.25%).Giventhe possibility to choose, it was realized that participants would prefer a blended teaching / learning, where some teaching activities are switched to online platforms.

Student-centered learning approaches such as project-based learning and flipped classroom stress the active role of the learner by applying knowledge rather than absorbing knowledge, and preparing higher education students for professional development. Student-centered learning environments are more effective when students regulate their learning and learn autonomously. There-fore, the purpose of this study is to examine the impact of a proposed ap-proach of flipped project-based learning on various facets of students' self-regulated learning, including motivational beliefs and learning strategies in higher education. A flipped project-based learning environment was designed and developed to improve students’ self-regulated learning skills. In this regard, multiple case studies were conducted according to a pretest-posttest quasi-experiment design to investigate the effectiveness of the proposed approach by four groups of students from different disciplines. The study employed a mixed-method research approach for data collection. Overall, the results re-vealed that the flipped project-based learning approach significantly enhanced students’ self-regulated learning skills. It was found that the approach fostered the students’ self-regulation performance among different groups across dif-ferent disciplines and levels. Moreover, participants also claimed that the approach was useful and ef-fective. The findings indicated that students who actively engaged within flipped PBL activities demonstrated increases in cognitive and metacognitive functioning both individually and collaboratively. This study contributes to an advance in the understanding of how the development of SRL can be inte-grated into a flipped project-based learning environment in higher education.

Students’ learning experiences and perceptions are markedly influenced by the use of digital technology during the COVID-19 pandemic. Exploring students’ perception of blended online learning, amid the adaptations of the higher education sector in the wake of uncertainty, has become more critical than ever. This paper reflects on the experience of learning and teaching the Research Methods and Techniques subject in the postgraduate programme of MA Urban Design at Cardiff University during COVID-19 in the UK. To do so, we designed and carried out an online survey to explore students’ perception of online teaching and learning activities, feedback and assessment, and digital platforms based on their experience during the subject delivery period in the 2020–2021 academic year. One of the significant findings of this paper was that students agreed with the impact of eye contact on their virtual learning experience but as long as this was aligned with their rights to see others, including their peers and instructors, rather than reciprocal rights to be seen. In addition, students felt that facilitating synchronous communication through effective interaction among diverse peers has been quite challenging in small-group online reading seminars. The majority of respondents also reported that attending live online lectures was more helpful than watching pre-recorded lectures. Online formative feedback and synchronous interim reviews also allowed students to reflect on their progress and develop their projects further before their summative assessment. The outcomes of this paper can effectively assist educators who consider delivering programmes, adopting a blended online learning environment design model, in the post COVID-19 era. The findings of this study can also provide guidance for further developments and improvements in using digital technology and blended online learning in urban design education and pedagogy.

A survey was conducted to assess the impact of lockdown due to COVID-19 on online education of undergraduate learners of government colleges Umarban, district Dhar (454449) Madhya Pradesh, India. An online as well as offline survey was conducted from 10 October 2020 to 15 March 2021 to collect the information. To analyze the possibility and attention of students for online education, various online quizzes were conducted in which a structural questionnaire link using ‘Google form’ was sent to students through WhatsApp. A total of 265 students were taken for the survey. The simple percentage distribution was used to assess the learning status of the study participants. During the lockdown period, around 15.47% of learners were involved in e-learning. Most of the learners were used android mobile for attending e-learning. The present study revealed that around 60% of students were seen to involve in farming during lockdown instead of online classes. In addition to this, 45% of students never joined an online class during the entire session. Further analysis demonstrated that 13% of students do not have their own mobile phone, nearly 18% could not join due to poor internet connectivity, 21% of students faced unfavorable study environment at home and 3% of students have other reasons. This study also showed a comparative analysis of the presence of students before and after the COVID 19 pandemic. As the ratio of presence of students in physical and virtual classrooms was 2.32. The overall results from this study revealed that especially in rural areas COVID – 19 pandemic had affected more adversely on classroom attendance, where people already do not want to give importance to education. Higher education institutions may benefit from these findings while formulating strategies to support students during this pandemic. Moreover, to promote education in COVID 19 era strong strategies are urgently needed.

The whole world, including Bangladesh is brought to a standstill by the pandemic of COVID-19.  All the hustling-bustling of a densely populated country has come to a quiescent halt; the only sound remaining is the whisper of anxiety. The HEIs in Bangladesh is also struggled to react to this sudden catastrophe; magnified by uncertainties.  Compared to public universities, the private universities of the country managed to react the fastest and are making sweeping changes in a very short period of time, shifting traditional face-to-face course content/teaching to online content/teaching. The shift to fully functional online teaching learning platform was sudden and with minimum preparation. To investigate the perception of the private universities community in Bangladesh with this new teaching learning method, this paper adopted the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model, focuses on stakeholders’ behavioral intention, availability of the online platform, prior experience, attitude towards usage (ease of use and usefulness) and most importantly the impact of COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, the paper also discusses the issues of social and cultural impact. It was found that all the UTAUT attributes are positively correlated with the Behavioral Intention and eventually to Use Behavior of students in adopting online education. Moreover, unexpected, and unprecedented impact of COVID-19 pandemic also effected their behavioral intention towards accepting online education.

Th is work has the theme: Relevant considerations for inline teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic in Public Schools in Amapá. It may be considered that the online teaching has been a challenge for the teacher and for the student, because the difficulties a re innumerable: Internet access, cellphone or computer. The fact is that no one was prepared for this situation, nor the Amapá Secretariat of Education, as well as school managers, teachers students and their families. Everyone had to use creativity to develop students’ learning process. Th us, this new modality requires reflection on the consideration of relevance that can contribute to education quality. Th ese considerations highlight the importance and the family compromise at this moment to encourage the children to attend classes; teachers can create alternatives at websites, groups at social media and messengers’ apps; schools to offer tools to teachers and students in this interaction and the State Secretariat of Education providing support to enable the necessary conditions to minimize the impact suffered in relation to the students’ content and learning. Due to a certain part of the students not having access to the Internet, one of the alternatives found was delivering the activities on printed material. Our objective is knowing the difficulties presented during this period of pandemic in online education for the actors of the process and the expected solutions by the Educational System with the schools. Th e methodology used to carry out the work is based on bibliographic research. Therefore, it was found that innovation and creativity was means that the school was able to involve students so that they did not distance themselves, not necessarily using the technology, but making them part of the process and promoting reflection about their maturity in distance learning. From the above, it is concluded the importance of the Amapá State Secretariat of Education, of the school, of the teacher and the family to develop the potential of each student and to prepare them for the development of their knowledge and learning.
