Other factors that may affect students’ academic motivation during COVID-19 pandemic are the

student's setting, family status, and modern teaching techniques are all to consider. Many students who
have excelled in previous academic settings may find it difficult to adapt to new hybrid and online
learning environments. It's true that video fatigue exists. It is true that there is a lack of social interaction
among classmates. The challenges of technology are real.

Since, despite the fact that remote learning and remote work opportunities have been growing
for some time, regardless of the pandemic, the current need for social distance has resulted in
widespread acceptance of remote processes, the difficulties of social distancing can also affect students'
academic motivation. While those who were previously well-equipped to manage video conferencing
and remote training are having difficulty, the questions are far greater when you consider today's
students' needs and how they are adapting. Students thrive when they are given opportunities to
communicate and converse with their peers. As a result of classroom discussions and social interactions
with peers, they develop academically and socially which they are now being denied the opportunity to
do so in person.

There are several technical considerations as well. The most inconvenient elements of an online
course or a student-teacher web conference are spotty Wi-Fi and security issues. Due to the large
number of family members studying and working from home, they may be sharing the same Internet
connection and experiencing bandwidth issues. Being kicked out of a Zoom call or Google Meeting will
result in missing information and ambiguous contact. These variables can cause additional difficulties for
students, disrupting their learning and possibly affecting their motivation to learn.
