The Effects of the Coronavirus Pandemic on Student Learning
Keywords:
COVID, Education, PedagogyAbstract
The Coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19) has spread globally with catastrophic effects on the world, severely impacting lives, jobs, and the education of students. The health crisis impact has forced a shift towards online learning, transforming the delivery of education, and disrupting the schooling of every student. This paper looks at the comparison between traditional and online learning and the effects they have on social interactions, motivation, and stress on students. Although every learner has been negatively affected by this sudden adjustment to remote learning, learners from underprivileged societies have been more vulnerable, facing disproportionate losses in their education. Online learning has become the new “normal” as the virus’s effect has shown to be longer than predicted. As discussed in this paper, it is crucial to take collaborative actions and policy changes to create online learning a more engaging and effective delivery method of education.
