The Effect of Online Classes among K-12 Students

Children can be greatly impacted by the difficulties of online learning; among the most
significant issues are loss of motivation, lack of self-discipline and the obligation to study. The
COVID-19 pandemic brought great disruption to all aspects of life specifically on how classes
were conducted both in an offline and online modes. The sudden shift to purely online method of
teaching and learning was a result of the lockdowns that were imposed by the Philippine
government. While some institutions have dealt with the situation by shutting down operations,
others continued to deliver instructions and lessons using the Internet and different applications
that support online learning. The continuation of classes online had caused several issues from
students and teachers ranging from lack of technology to mental health matters. Finally,
recommendations were asserted to mitigate the presented concerns and improve the delivery of
the necessary quality education to the intended learners.

The COVID-19 pandemic caused significant disruptions in all facets of life, particularly in the
way that classes were delivered both offline and online. The rapid switch to an entirely online
approach to education and learning was brought on by the lockdowns that the Philippine
government imposed. While some institutions responded to the circumstance by ceasing
operation, others continued to give lessons and instructions via the Internet and various tools that
promote online learning. Students and professors had experienced a variety of problems as a
result of the online sessions, from a poor infrastructure to challenges with mental health. Finally,
suggestions were expressed to allay the worries raised and enhance the provision of the essential
high levels of education to the desired students.

Children's accessibility to education is improved by online learning. To succeed in an


online program, students need to be well-organized, self-motivated, and very time-efficient. For
students who are responsible and mature, virtual learning methods can be an acceptable
alternative educational medium. However, they are inappropriate for learning environments
where the learner is the focus. The fundamental advantage of asynchronous, home schooling is
that it enables students to actively engage in high-quality learning environments, whereas
distance learning makes learning in person challenging or impossible. In order for students to
focus on the courses, teachers must maintain their online lessons as clear, interesting, and
interactive as possible. Because of students' dedication to time, it is frequently believed that
online courses need less effort and time than traditional ones. Online learners can submit
homework, essays, and projects as well as take part in class discussions.

Children can be greatly impacted by the difficulties of online learning; among the most
significant issues are loss of motivation, lack of self-discipline and the desire to study. Among
the negative effects include the ineffectiveness of technologies, the difficulty of teaching
concepts to students, the social isolation caused by online learning, and the failure of students to
develop the essential communication skills. Unique learning techniques, learning environments,
and parental engagement all affect how well a student's training performs in online learning.

The shift to blended teaching has repercussions for both students and teachers, who
must modify their curricula and help their pupils adjust to the new educational environment.
Teachers and parents are paying attention, and many are wondering if the switch to online
learning will have long-lasting effects on pupils who leave the classroom. The impact of the
switch to online learning on students' sleep and health is among the most significant side effects. 

One of the easiest goods of online education on children’s recovery is to ameliorate literacy
issues. Online literacy provides scholars with access to a time and place for education. With
online courses that can take place at home or in a place of their choice, there's lower chance for
scholars to miss classes.

On the negative, online courses give access to scholars who may noway have the occasion or the
inclination to attend lectures in person. Advancements in artificial intelligence offer stopgap for
the unborn Online courses address scholars needs, meet them where they're learning, and better
integrate them into advanced education than they've ever been suitable to do in particular
courses. Online courses offer the pledge of penetrating scholars' lives at all times, reconsidering
educational openings, or at least serving the traditional classroom more. With online education,
scholars have the occasion to learn from preceptors from any time zone in the world and at any
time of day.
