In educational institutions, such as universities, the usage of digital tools has been employed to improve the delivery of the curriculum. They could be useful as teaching aids in the event of a COVID-19 epidemic. As a result of these concerns, this research was carried out to find out what students thought about the use of screen recording video in virtual learning activities during the Covid-19 epidemic. A total of 50 students from the English department at Universitas Pamulang participated in this study. To gather information, the authors handed out a questionnaire with ten questions and interviewed four students on the use of virtual learning in the COVID-19 pandemic situation. Students' top five positive responses to screen video recording in virtual learning are: improving the quality of learning, assisting students in learning more effectively, enhancing students' learning experience, student-teacher engagement, and flexibility of time and place, according to the data analysis. They also discovered that no matter how helpful screen capturing video is, teachers' aid and advice are still required.

The impacts of COVID-19 on education have changed how many schools and education providers deliver education with the rapid transition to online learning environments. This research highlights the critical factors influencing student and teacher engagement while also highlighting opportunities for educators to enhance the engagement for their students, utilising results from two focus groups and qualitative surveys through a case study on school districts across South Australia. This provided an understanding of the critical factors influencing teacher and student engagement and identified opportunities for improvements to the levels of student engagements through online learning environments. This research has identified best practices within schools and across the Department of Education that can support virtual learning and digital engagement into the future. In addition, through the identification of critical factors influencing student and teacher engagement, exploration of opportunities to support students and improve overall digital engagement can be identified.
