The endemic coronavirus (COVID-19) is growing exponentially around the world. The prevalence of the new coronavirus COVID-19 around the world has led to global changes in society, various organizations, and educational institutions. Primary school and university populations appear to be at a lower mortality risk than older adults, but precautions are still needed in a pandemic called "social distance" to reduce interpersonal contact and thereby minimize transmission of the virus. Approximately 264 million children and adolescents are out of school (UNESCO, 2017), and the pandemic has further exacerbated the situation. The more the pandemic grows, the more schools, colleges and universities are closed, contributing to the transition to online learning. The time has come to rethink and rebuild our education system based on the current situation. In the aftermath of the COVID-19 crisis, online education has been a pedagogical breakthrough from a traditional method to a more modern approach to teaching and learning, from class to Zoom, from personal to virtual, from seminars to webinars. Around the world, the entire education system, from primary to tertiary, was destroyed during the isolation of the new coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The pandemic has prompted a re-examination of the main points of online learning in education, as well as how existing educational resources can help transform formal education online through virtual classrooms and other online resources. The process of online teaching-learning modes is perceived by teachers and students in different ways, sometimes causing difficulties and controversy in the effectiveness of their use.

The purpose of the work is to explore the potential of online learning in modern conditions and to assess the possibilities of its use at different stages of the educational process. The reason for the mass appeal to this form of education is that the entire education system from primary to higher level underwent a transformation during the period of isolation associated with the spread of COVID-19. Practice has shown that in the current conditions, the existing resources of educational institutions can effectively transform formal education into online education with the help of virtual classes and other key online tools. Today, taking into account the unstable epidemiological situation in the world, online training continues to be relevant for various educational organizations and is used today along with the traditional form of training. For this reason, the study of the potential of this form of education will not lose its relevance for a long time. The use of online learning technologies places high demands on teachers.

The COVID-19 pandemic has tremendously affected higher education systems in Russia and all over the world, forcing to transform curriculum into an online format, which is a challenge for all the educational process participants. The current study discusses the implementation of online learning amid the COVID-19 pandemic in the Russian higher education context and investigates the challenges experienced by university teachers during this period to define their readiness for online education. To address the above-mentioned issues, a study was conducted in Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University. A variety of methods of scientific and pedagogical research were used including systematic structural analysis, synthesis, work with research papers, the generalization of experience and experimental work, observation, surveys, etc., with 87 university teachers asked to respond to several sets of questions describing their online teaching experience after the launch of online education amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The analysis of the participants’ answers helped to identify the following main challenges experienced by university teachers: computer literacy level, the university electronic environment and support, academic staff readiness and students’ readiness for online learning, the last two being the most important hindering the implementation of the efficient online education process. It was also underlined by most respondents that methodological work of a teacher in a digital educational environment differs from conventional teaching methods. Thus, psychological, technological, methodological support and teachers’ professional development programs are of vital importance to minimize the negative impact of the rapid changes of the educational process and to ensure efficient online education.

Corona virus disease-19 (COVID-19) is an acute highly infectious disease primarily involving the respiratory system. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a global pandemic on March 11, 2020. No proven efficacious drug and no vaccine are available so far for treatment or prophylaxis of COVID-19. Social distancing has been one of the major measures adopted to prevent spread of the disease. Educational institutions have been shut down all over the world for the safety of both students and communities. Social distancing measures hamper students from assembling in learning labs, lecture halls, or small-group rooms and interacting in person. The major response to the pandemic has been to try to move both teaching-learning and assessment online. Schools have also tried to move clinical learning and teaching communication skills online using standardized patients and facilitators. Online education and assessment are not without their challenges, more so in South Asia. Online teaching learning has been a challenge for both faculty members and students, in varying extent. With online learning environments, supervision and support by the teacher may be less and students should have well developed self-regulated learning skills. These challenges have also offered several opportunities, some general to educators, some relatively specific to medical educators, some global in perspective and some local ones. The pandemic offers both educators and students the insight into: how health problems particularly infectious diseases can affect human life and livelihood; and understanding how people respond to it. The pandemic has forced changes in education methods, modality and process, which though may demand extra effort initially, provides teacher, faculty and facilitator the impetus to keep pace with current trends InTechnology. It has offered an opportunity to move to online learning and interaction and use virtual platforms for e-conference, webinars, podcasts, e-class/ e-lectures etc. Pandemic has brought very rapid changes in educational approaches in South Asia, which otherwise would have taken 5-10 years under normal circumstances.
