Abstract
"During the years 2020 and 2021 The world faced a terrible Health emergency because of a Pandemic which was caused by the coronavirus disease (Covid-19). All the countries around the world closed public places and institutions including schools and colleges avoiding crowded places. These unprecedented strategies redefine homeschooling and teachers and students participate in an Emergency On-line education. The motivation of students affording the big changes had a terrible and stressful impact on their academic performance. Since then, students have had to seek for new alternatives in order to maintain their educational progress without giving a pause in their careers. The educational system had to re-address the directions and teaching techniques for our common welfare in order to prevail students’ health and avoid more cases of COVID-19. For this reason, the whole view and objectives were adapted into a technology-oriented class model creating a genuine virtual class environment which had as many advantages as disadvantages. It is well known by most students that there is an enormous difference between face-to-face classes and taking a seat in front of the computer. Many disadvantages were witnessed by myself during the process and performance of my Professional Practice".
