Abstract:

COVID-19 has made a huge global impact on the economy and education is one such field that is the most affected one as students all over the world are losing their valuable time during the lockdown. Due to COVID-19 schools and colleges are shut all across the world. However Online teaching by various e techniques and methods have emerged as the go-to solution for schools, colleges, and universities but still, the success of such online teaching entirely depends upon the perception of students and also their understanding level. In this paper, we have tried to attempt to analyze the extent to which students are satisfied with the online teaching provided by their teachers by various means such as zoom classes, Google classroom, Socratives, Talent LMS , live storm etc. To study the perception of the students data was collected through the convenient sampling of 280 students from Punjab. The result indicates that most of the student accept the online education during the COVID-19 but response is not very much positive which show that students are not considering online education as an alternative to offline regular education. ANOVA was applied to test the difference in perceptions. It was concluded that male and female students carry the same viewpoint. Most UG and PG students have a difference in opinion regarding online education. Perception does not vary based on the course of study. In a different location, the student carries different perceptions regarding online studies.
