Abstract

The spread of the corona in the world has affected many things and disrupted the way of life. In our country, due to the lack of necessary preparation to face this disease, education was disrupted for a while and suffered the most damage. With the onset of the Corona crisis, various countries quickly shut down face-to-face training and moved on to virtual education in order to comply with health protocols to combat the disease as much as possible. Schools, universities, and academic institutions around the world used a variety of methods to advance their education. Some distance learning software and platforms are on the agenda of these institutions and teachers and professors with different teaching methods, provide the necessary training to their learners. In the field of e-learning, different countries face different problems in which many factors are involved that hinder the advancement of education. In this article, we have tried to point out the various methods that have been used and tested in various scientific institutes, as well as to discuss the problems and difficulties facing this type of teaching.
