“…Students will achieve better results and enjoy the learning process if the proper environment is created. Learning is a change in a person that occurs as a result of experience; in this case, the importance of behavioural changes, whether observable or not, is also emphasized (Capone & Lepore, 2021).…”

Students' motivation to learn has been impacted by the widespread changes to the school system and learning environment brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. This research aimed to examine the impact of the learning environment and online learning system using Google Meet on accounting students' motivation at a state Islamic university in Riau during the COVID-19 pandemic. A survey approach was taken, with hypotheses tested and quantitative data used in this investigation. According to the findings of this study, the learning environment and online learning system using Google Meet positively impact students' learning motivation. This demonstrates that changes in the environment and learning system during the COVID-19 pandemic caused students to become more independent and critical thinkers.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate how the digital competence of academicians influences students’ engagement in learning activities in the face of the pandemic outbreak. In addition to this, the paper investigates how digital competence influences each dimension of student engagement (cognitive, affective and behavioural). Design/methodology/approach A cross-sectional, quantitative and explanatory research design was used to conduct the study. Data were gathered with an adopted questionnaire administered to a randomly selected sample of 500 university faculty members who were not digitally literate prior to the outbreak of the pandemic. Apart from the goodness of data tests, inferential statistics were applied to test hypotheses. Findings Results indicate a significant influence of teachers’ digital competence on student engagement and the pandemic outbreak positively moderates the relationship. Digital competence equally influences all three dimensions of student engagement. Practical implications The outbreak of COVID-19 made the adoption of digital life more compulsive and the nations with already available digital infrastructure and digital competence effectively minimized the adverse effect of social distancing as a result of the pandemic outbreak. Findings emphasize practitioners to focus on the digital capacity building of academicians and the provision of digital infrastructure to facilitate student engagement. Social implications Society is transforming into a hi-tech lifestyle and technological advancement is penetrating almost every sphere of life at an unprecedented pace. From the digitalization of day-to-day affairs to e-governance, the adoption of technology is becoming a new normal. The outbreak of the pandemic overtook academic institutions equally. So, the social distancing compelled academicians and other stakeholders of universities to switchover from in-campus classes to online classes. The findings enrich the existing body of literature by explaining how digital competence has a determining role in ensuring student engagement amid the COVID-19 outbreak. Originality/value This research is a seminal work, as it tests the influence of digital competence on student engagement with the moderating role of the pandemic outbreak. To the best of the author’s knowledge, existing literature does not present this kind of research.

“…Ours is intended to be the voice of researchers who, like others, have had to reorganize their teaching by reporting a case study very similar to many other situations in the world. In the authors' previous works, the importance of using information technologies in the educational dialogue to prevent drop out and improving students' engagement, motivation, and participation linked to the Situation Awareness (SA) model has been highlighted (Branchetti et al, 2021;Capone and Lepore, 2021;Capone, 2022a,b). They investigated the possible effects of the long-term use of distance learning as the only means of teaching in an emergency, in addition to other social factors like students' motivation, engagement, and participation.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic put teachers and students in virtual classrooms, necessitating the Lesson Study to be adapted to such a new context. In this paper, we investigate how the roles of teachers, observers, and students are changing, considering the use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) as the only medium of communication. The research methodology is based on the Documental Approach to Didactics, including Instrumental Genesis. It is a qualitative internal case study. The data was collected through video analysis. The Lesson Study (LS) methods were based on a cyclic model (co-planning, teaching, observation, debriefing, and revision), adapted to Distance Learning (DL). The topic is about Statistics, starting from the COVID-19 diffused data. The experimental work allowed us to observe the inter-connections between LS and DL. We deduced that ICT could be considered as a resource for the documental genesis, which generates processes aimed at social knowledge mediated by the teacher. We supposed that the observing phase was less invasive than during virtual experimentation. Nevertheless, the observers had difficulties understanding some students' and teachers' emotional aspects and analyzing the group activities. The technological resources were an added value for the LS. We present an LS methodology, entirely carried out through DL. The main value consists of showing both affordability and constraints of the DL with respect to the LS and vice versa.
