Purpose The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic led education institutions to move all face-to-face (F2F) courses online. The situation is unique in that teachers and students can make a direct comparison of their courses before (F2F) and after COVID-19 (online). This study aims to analyze teachers’ viewpoints for this unprecedented change. Design/methodology/approach The study followed a mixed-method approach within an ex post facto survey research design. Research tools were distributed among 200 Indian secondary school teachers following a heterogeneous purposive sampling technique. As the study was conducted during the pandemic backdrop researchers used Google forms and telephonic interviews to collect data. Findings Teachers viewed positively to this shift from F2F to online teaching-learning (OTL). They were found to have an overall moderate level of online teaching efficacy and where good efficacy prevails there found minimal concern for infrastructure, an attitude showing least concern for “what is not” and more concerned with “what they can do with what is having.” A statistically significant effect of teacher efficacy was found on their perception of OTL infrastructure that supports this strong conviction among few teachers. Statistical analysis revealed for every 1 standard unit increase in self-efficacy, the perceived OTL infrastructure was to be increased by 0.997 standard units which support the strong correlation between the two chosen cognitive variables (r = 0.8). Besides, teachers were not found as a homogeneous group concerning their reported readiness for online teaching yet, different subgroups of teachers exist which may require different approaches for support and counseling. Originality/value The paper reports an original empirical survey conducted in India and the write-up is based strictly on the survey findings only. An exclusive analysis of teachers’ views of their efficacy and perceived OTL infrastructure. At the same time, path-breaking in analyzing the chemistry between the two variables which will help improving apposite culture, practice and understanding of the digital pedagogy securing quality OTL in the long run.

Academic Year

The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have required substantial adjustments in terms of university teaching–learning processes. The aim of this study was to verify whether there were significant differences between the academic year of 2020 and the two preceding years in factors and symptoms and stress. A total of 642 university students (ages 18–25 years) participated by filling out validated self-reports during the months from March to August 2020. Using an ex post facto design, SEM analyses and simple and multiple ANOVAs were performed. Structural results showed that stress factors from the teaching process had a predictive value for the learning process, emotions, and academic burnout, and being a man was a factor predicting negative emotion. In a similar way, inferential results revealed no significant effect of academic year but did show an effect of gender on stress experiences during the pandemic. Aside from certain specific aspects, there was no significant global effect of the year 2020 on factors and symptoms of stress. The results showed that studying in the year of the COVID-19 outbreak did not have a significant effect on stress triggered by the teaching process. From these results, we draw implications for specific guidance interventions with university teachers and students.

Aprendizaje Colaborativo

Comunicarse de manera efectiva y apropiada en una lengua extranjera (FL) implica dominar las cuatro habilidades lingüísticas, comprensión y expresión escritas (CE-EE) y comprensión y expresión oral (CO-EO). Sin embargo, no se desarrollan al mismo nivel durante el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje en entornos formales. El desarrollo de la expresión oral en FFL es a menudo un desafío para los profesores debido a condicionantes tales como la falta de motivación y sentimientos de inhibición, falta de seguridad o confianza en sí mismo del alumno. A estos, se suman otros como falta de tiempo, grandes grupos de alumnos o vacíos metodológicos y evaluativos que complican la práctica de esta competencia en el aula. Este trabajo presenta un proyecto educativo implementado en la clase FLE donde la Francofonía, el uso de las TIC y el aprendizaje colaborativo son fundamentales para desarrollar la expresión oral del aprendientee al mismo tiempo que ayuda a fortalecer sus habilidades personales. Communicating effectively and appropriately in a SL implies mastering the four language skills, i.e. written comprehension and expression and oral comprehension and expression. However, not all develop equally during the teaching-learning process in formal contexts.The development of oral expression in FFL is often a challenge for teachers and students due to conditions such as lack of motivation and feelings of inhibition of the students, lack of security or self-confidence. To these are added others such as lack of time, large groups of students or methodological and evaluative gaps that contribute significantly to hinder the practice of this competence in the classroom. This paper presents a teaching project implemented in the FFL classroom where Francophonie, the use of ICT and collaborative learning are key to developing the oral expression of the learner contributing to reinforcing their personal skills. Communiquer efficacement et de manière appropriée dans une langue étrangère (LE) implique de maîtriser les quatre compétences linguistiques, la compréhension et expression écrites (CE-EE) et la compréhension et expression orales (CO-EO). Cependant, elles ne se développent pas au même niveau au cours du processus d’enseignement-apprentissage dans des contextes formels. Le développement de l’expression orale en FLE est souvent un défi pour les enseignants en raison de conditions tellles que le manque de motivation et les sentiments d’inhibition de l’élève, le manque de sécurité ou de confiance en soi. À ceux-ci s’ajoutent d’autres comme le manque de temps, de grands groupes d’étudiants ou des lacunes méthodologiques et évaluatives qui réduisent la pratique de cette compétence en classe. Cet ouvrage presente un projet pédagogique mis en oeuvre en classe FLE où la Francophonie, l’utilisation des TIC et l’apprentissage collaboratif sont essentiels pour développer l’expression orale de l’apprenant en même temps qu’elle contribue à renforcer ses compétences personnelles.
