Popis: | In 2020, the entire world experienced a pandemic caused by the COVID-19 virus. This pandemic drew most of the entire world population to confinement, causing dramatic changes in most people’s everyday activities, for instance, education. Most countries modified their educational systems and moved from a face to face education to an online mode. By using a survey design, this study aims to describe the online teaching practices of 51 language teachers working at the language center of a university. Results show that language instructors working in this institution did not receive clear instructions on how to move from face to face to an online mode effectively. Additionally, results show that they have limited understanding of online education, a lack of a proper online education training among language teachers, and limited knowledge of how to properly integrate technological tools into an online mode. |
