FOREIGN LANGUAGE EDUCATION DURING COVID-19 PANDEMIC: AN EVALUATION FROM THE PERSPECTIVES OF PREPARATORY CLASS STUDENTS

Abstract

A variety of action plans have been taken by countries during the global outbreak of COVID-19. The decision to suspend educational programs is one of the steps taken. Computers and the Internet have the power to study at home without the need for all learners to join a standard face-to-face program in the modern century. In general, distance learning, some of which call it open learning primarily serves students who for one or another reason are unable to attend face-to-face programs. This study explores the level of satisfaction of distance learning students and evaluations of distance learning courses conducted during the Covid-19 process. For this aim, a Likert-type questionnaire was applied to 50 students of the English preparatory program. Besides, structured interviews were used to validate the data collected from the questionnaire. The findings of the study showed that a large majority of learners were pleased with the distance English courses; nonetheless, some aspects of the synchronous were not satisfactory.
