Abstract

COVID-19 replaced face-to-face instruction with online learning. This study examines preschool teachers' online ECE attitudes. 375 preschool teachers took an online course on quality and inclusive early childhood education. 195 out of 375 preschoolers completed this study's online questionnaire about internet learning. The authors coded responses to find pros, cons, and mixed viewpoints. Romanian preschool instructors see the challenge of online learning in Zoom kindergarten, the requirement of online teaching instead of not retaining contact with kids and families, and tightening the connection with parents as advantages of early childhood online education. Romanian preschool teachers have mixed opinions about Zoom kindergarten's pros and cons, including that online classes can be used as integrated online educational sequences but never replace traditional kindergarten.
