COVID-19: Impact of Distance Learning Education Toward Grade 11 STEM Student's Academic Performance
Introduction
Wuhan city Hubei province in China (December 31, 2019). After investigating and
individuals, the WHO named it COVID-19i. Hence on January 30, 2020 Due to the rapid
spread and increase of cases worldwide a month after its emergence the world health
(COVID-19) made a huge impact especially in the global education. By May 2, 2020,

distance learning is not a new approach, the rapid, unplanned, and uncertain period of
time of the approach, is presenting obstacles, challenges and taking a toll on students at
all educational levels including grade 11 STEM students. Thus, the goal of this research
was to find out how the transition to distant learning affects the grade 11 STEM students
in ICCT Colleges Cogeo campus. The purpose is to uncover students’ academic obstacles
and unanticipated benefits of distant learning, and then utilize that knowledge to suggest
strategies that may be used in the event of future crises affecting education.
