Resumo
As atividades de ensino-aprendizagem têm testemunhado imensos desafios devido ao surto do vírus COVID-19 em todo o mundo. Eventualmente, todos os professores e alunos foram forçados a escolher uma aula online em vez do aprendizado tradicional ou presencial para impedir a propagação do vírus. No entanto, os pesquisadores veem isso como um desafio em vez de aproveitar esta oportunidade para felicitar os professores e instrutores com os resultados deste estudo, que os ajudará a implementar sistemas de e-learning. Portanto, este estudo visa determinar as experiências dos alunos sobre o uso do e-learning como método pedagógico para suas necessidades de aprendizado em meio à situação do Covid-19 e além. Nesse sentido, foi elaborado um questionário utilizando construtos dos primeiros estudos para medir a experiência e a satisfação do usuário com o sistema de e-learning. O questionário consiste em 10 itens fechados, distribuídos aleatoriamente entre 50 alunos de graduação de EFL da Qassim University. Com base nas respostas válidas dos alunos para cada item, uma análise quantitativa foi feita usando o SPSS 26. Este estudo indica as atitudes positivas dos alunos em relação ao uso do sistema de e-learning, pois eles afirmaram que este sistema lhes permitiu atingir seus objetivos metas de aprendizagem. No entanto, os alunos relataram leve dificuldade técnica devido ao sistema de gerenciamento de aprendizagem da universidade.
