Abstract

This study investigated teachers' perception of the impact of COVID-19 on education. Their perceptions were analyzed in three aspects: barrier to access, opportunities, and learning outcomes. This study employed a descriptive design with a mixed approach. A self-developed survey questionnaire was used to elicit the responses of 119 school teachers from eights schools in Tamil Nadu, India. This study's findings revealed that the pandemic had impacted adversely the access, opportunities, and outcomes of education. The independent variables like age, years of experience, and subject taught did not influence perceptions of teachers. The findings show no correlation among perception of barrier to access, opportunities, and outcomes. Though more than half of the teachers didn't agree on the effectiveness of online education, they could show the right attitude toward using technology to teach online. The current crisis, COVID-19, highlighted the role of the internet and technology in education.
