 Abstract

The normal activities such as going to school have

been disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic. lt has caused
profound disruption to the education system as
governments around the world have temporarily closed
educational institutions to contain the spread of the
coronavirus. Face-to-face classes have been canceled and
moved online, bringing about the rise of online learning that
has allowed learners to continue their education. The
sudden transition from face-to-face to online learning has,
however, posed numerous challenges for students and
teachers. This article discusses effect of using online
learning platform in teaching learning during the covid-19
pandemic. The contribution of this study is to evaluate the
learner’s experiences in online education and to assess the
feasibility of the virtual methods of learning. The study
results show that most online learners are not satisfied with
continuing online learning, as they could not fulfill the
expected progress in language learning performance.

 INTRUDUCTION

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed education

forever. It has resulted in schools shut all across the world.
Globally, over 1.2 billion children are out of the classroom. As a
result, education has changed dramatically, with the distinctive
rise of e-learning, whereby teaching is undertaken remotely and
on digital platforms. Research suggests that online learning has
been shown to increase retention of information, and take less
time, meaning the changes coronavirus have caused might be
here to stay.

For those who do have access to the right technology,

there is evidence that learning online can be more effective in a
number of ways. There are, however, challenges to overcome.
Some students without reliable internet access and/or technology
struggle to participate in digital learning; this gap is seen across
countries and between income brackets within countries.
Therefore, it is clear that this pandemic has utterly disrupted an
education system that many assert was already losing its
relevance.

 METHODOLOGY

This research used statistical analysis specifically

surveys to collect data that signified a relationship between
dependent and independent variables. The type of
investigation used was the Questionnaire survey. We used
the ordinal scale collection within a 4-point scale. The
questionnaire survey allows us researcher to scale the
effects of online learning platform in teaching–learning
during the Covid-19 pandemic by giving scenarios that
collectively affected their lives in the pandemic allowing
them to choose a scale depending to their experiences. We
collected respondents specifically 6 teachers and 12
students. Those and respondents comes from different
Schools and life status.

The rest of the chapter is organized as follows. First

we explain the methods to gather data by the means of a
questionnaire survey. Second, we present a sample of the
questionnaire survey which we utilized for the research. A
4-point scale will be used for the questionnaire. Third, we
will show the method on how we compiled the data that has
been gathered according to the different aspect that
affected the respondents.

1. Data collection

To apply the method of our research we must

distribute our questionnaire to the target respondents to
gather data. We choose 6 teacher respondents 12 students
respondents. The table below shows the assigned
respondents that we researchers are tasked to collect date
from.

We researchers are tasked with specific

numbers of respondents to be able to collect data from
them. The picking of respondents is random in nature with
varying life status and location. The respondents are given
questionnaire survey through Messaging platform and
through direct distribution. A printed copy is given to the
respondents that has no access to stable internet
connection. While a soft-copy document is given to a
respondent which has the means to answer the
questionnaire. Each respondents are given the time span
of 1 week to answer the questionnaire survey.

2. Sample Questionnaire
In the questionnaires we categorized the effects into
different aspects such as Emotional, Mental, Physical,
Financial, Psychological, etc. In each aspect we will then
give questions that will be answered by choosing from the
4-point scale provided below. This is an example of the
structure of the questionnaire.

 RESULTS AND FINDINGS

The data is obtained by utilizing questionnaire survey

that was distributed in a total of 18 subjects; six (6) teachers
and Twelve (12) students respectively. The subjects are then
divided into three (3), 1 teacher and 2 students per researcher.

As discussed earlier the purpose of the research is to find out

the effects of online learning to both teachers and students in
the time of pandemic. The subjects of the research are given
one (1) week to answer the questionnaire .All ethics of research
are followed in the duration of the work, including respecting the
right of confidentiality to the subject. The subjects had the
options to not state their name if they prefer to.

 DISSCUSION

During the COVID-19 pandemic, students were unable to

attend school, and most schools switched to online teaching. To
understand the design of online teaching activities among
teachers at all levels, online questionnaires were adopted in this
study to investigate teachers who had conducted online teaching
due to the pandemic.
The first objective was to explore teachers’ online
teaching activities when classroom teaching was suspended due
to COVID-19. Based on the results of the frequencies of
behaviors in the teaching, learning interaction, learning
effectiveness and other categories, the top four instructional
behaviors were roll calls, lecturing with a presentation screen, in-
class task (assignment) allocation and whole-class synchronous
video-/audio-based discussion. In terms of teaching, lecturing
with a presentation screen was the most frequently used,
regardless of the learning stage. In addition, teachers’
arrangement of synchronous text-based discussions depended on
the learning level. In terms of learning effectiveness, task
(assignment) allocation was the most frequent behavior,
regardless of the learning stage. Second, assignments and work
reports were commonly used by teachers for evaluation, And
most of all were likely to use online tests for evaluation. Finally, in
terms of the other category, we found that roll calls and inquiries
about the learning environment, such as the status of hardware
and software, were necessary for online teaching, regardless of
the learning stage.

16 | P a g e
 Over all the questionnaire survey findings amongst the
subject of the research are most of them were affected by the
online learning-teaching, based on the data received there are
37% said that they are heavily affected in different aspects that
concerns the new way of learning. On the other hand, 82 % of the
respondents said that they are affected by it, gaining the most
number of data . 61 % said also that they are rarely affected by it
according the data gathered. lastly none of them said that they
are not affected at all.

 CONCLUSION

Our research analyze the impact of Using Online Learning

Platform in Teaching-Learning during the Covid-19 Pandemic. In
this thesis we quantify the effects of the said research problem on
the different aspects of the lives of our subjects. We utilized the
methods of research by using survey questionnaire in order to
gather data from our subjects. The subjects of our research is
random by nature with varying life and social status. Our research
is useful in determining the different effects of the new way of
learning in the covid-19 pandemic. Future researchers can utilize
this research for references .
