Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has forced education institutions to adapt by using online tools to continue teaching when distancing was required. While the pandemic has had a negative effect on education, online learning has proven to be better than learning alone. This new paradigm shift in the way teaching can be delivered has paved the way for online classes to be taken in consideration outside of the pandemic. For countries which have a poor infrastructure in some regions, that makes it hard for all children to arrive to school daily, especially during harsh winters, online teaching could be used to offer continuous learning to all students. It can also continue to be used in some cases where classes cannot be attended due to illnesses. It is relevant to further study the impact of online learning within different schools from different regions, and to recognize the shaping factors for online teaching. The present study was based on a survey, in which 522 teachers from different categories of schools participated. Differences between the teaching processes during the pandemic have been studied based on the school’s funding (public or private), the region the school is based in, and the level of education that teachers provide. Results have highlighted differences based on all the studied categories.
