“…Along with these advantages, e-learning also multiplies some of the issues such as cheating, plagiarism, and using unfair means (Nagi, 2006). E-learners are more prone to lose focus, behave unethically, or go astray due to the lack of physical interaction and supervision (Akram et al, 2021;Zhang et al, 2011). The literature says that frequent interactions with machines may also lead to mechanical thinking and mindset (Malik et al, 2020).…”

<p style="text-align: justify;">Under the influence of neo-liberalism and marketization, education is increasingly becoming more content-focused than character one. Ignoring the fact that money, science, and technology may take a person to the moon, these are ethical and moral values that take him/her to the even loftier heights of humanity. Recent COVID-19-driven focus on information and communication technology (ICT) and digital learning have further added to these woes by focusing more on human-machine interaction than human-human ones. Traditional models for inculcating these values through education which heavily rely on the physical presence of teachers do not seem to work in these circumstances. This demands a model for inculcating these values in learning management systems/ e-learning platforms. This study contributes in this regard by first identifying key players and factors, and then proposing a model for it. Using the Delphi model, it gathers opinions from 59 experts in two rounds. Academic institutions, society and online community members, teachers, and e-contents were identified as key factors and players. It suggests a holistic approach-based model through which all of them play their role and collaborate through an e-learning platform. That platform can be used to disseminate information, create awareness, monitor, and report the e-learners. It uses pull and push strategies to help the e-learners to develop those values.</p>

“…Teachers ultimately figured out how to modify their teaching for the new online environment (Ghanbari and Nowroozi, 2022), and teachers are still capable of delivering what is demanded of them, which is effective teaching, even if given workloads (Magalong and Torreon, 2021). Akram et al (2021) discovered that student engagement and teachers' abilities, techniques, training, domain, and perspective are the most influential factors in the effectiveness of online teaching. Their research proposes that institutions concentrate on teachers' needs to make more effective online teaching.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic drastically changed the education system and forced schools to adopt online teaching. However, it affects the teachers' workload globally. The study aims to assess the workload level of the 95 teachers at the Technological Institute of the Philippines -Manila during the online setup. Using the NASA Task Load Index assessment tool, the researchers could evaluate the different workload sources. The Analysis of Variance and pairwise correlation analysis were also used so that the researchers could determine if their demographic profile significantly affects their current workload and if the different sources have a significant relationship with each other. After this, the findings revealed an 80.86% on teachers' workload level, which is greater than workload acceptability. The current setup also demands good performance, intense thinking, and effort in the new learning setup. The researchers found that the result is still the same even though they are weighted based on their demographic profile. Moreover, there is a low positive relationship between temporal and mental demand and a very low positive relationship between effort and performance. The relationships between effort and temporal demand, performance, and temporal demand also show a low negative correlation. At the same time, there is a very low negative relationship between frustration and physical demand, performance and mental demand, and physical and mental demand. The recommended practices for the school and teachers are also created to help them ease and reduce zoom fatigue without jeopardizing the quality of education they deliver to the students.

Although there are many benefits of teaching online such as reducing travel costs and saving time and learning space during COVID-19 era, there are still difficulties and challenges faced by both teachers and students, especially for the primary school teachers and students. The purpose of this study is to explore the experiences and factors affecting the online teaching and learning of Chinese primary school teachers and students, thus provide coping strategies for both stakeholders when conducting online teaching and learning activities. The mixed quantitative and qualitative research method will be adopted to study their responses to the online learning and teaching experiences in post-epidemic era. Data will be collected through surveys and semi-structured interviews with 1300 primary school students and 80 teachers in Xi’an Foreign Language Primary school. Data collection will be carried out using survey questionnaire and interview questions and analyzed based on descriptive statistics quantitatively and thematic analysis qualitatively. The researcher wants to find difficulties which may pose challenges to their normal online learning and teaching activities during this special occasion, then put related strategies for both stakeholders as well as policy makers for future reference. The findings can be used as a reference in other research or in a comparable scenario by interested scholars. Educators can use these findings to advocate strategies that will provide a better education.
