Abstract

Coronavirus pandemic, as a viral threat to the world, is imposing a lot of changes in the field of education. So this leads to dealing with new mechanisms in order to keeping up and motivate the educational institutions to choose distance learning or the E-learning as an alternative. As a result, the Algerian educational system raised challenges to fight this pandemic by moving from the traditional learning to distance learning. University of Oran2, Mohamed Ben Ahmed, as the other universities has chosen to shut its doors on the face of pandemic and remote working through E-learning platforms. In this paper, our objective is investigating problems and issues that faced both teacher and student that considered as important episodes in the E-learning process. Although distance learning is effective and beneficial, the students find themselves less motivated to complete their tasks, and get distracted by weak access to internet. Student and teacher dissatisfaction with feedback is also a significant problem. To gain a fuller understanding of teacher and student E-learning challenges and how they cope with them, in depth qualitative research is required.
