摘要

IntroductionThe COVID-19 pandemic has affected the academic sector in Nepal immeasurably, forcing lockdowns of manyeducational institutions and restricting movement across the nation. This has enormously affected personalinteraction between academics and students. As a result, online classes have emerged as a safe substitute fortraditional face-to-face classes. It is important to check students’ as well as teachers’ perception of theeffectiveness of online teaching, and to determine the acceptance of this mode of learning in comparison totraditional face-to face-classes within both groups. The findings of this study will help to ease educationalinstitutions’ transition to online teaching and will give policymakers a clear vision of the effectiveness of suchlectures. It may also help to formulate better plans to improve remote teaching in future.MethodsThis cross-sectional study was conducted among dental students and faculty of Universal College of MedicalSciences (UCMS), Bhairahawa, Nepal. A total of 170 student participants and 20 teachers were enrolled in thestudy, of whom 169 students and 17 teachers returned completed questionnaires. Descriptive analysis usingSPSS software was carried out to determine the results.ResultsSatisfaction with online classes in comparison in-person classes was ‘much’ or ‘somewhat’ less for 92.3 ofstudents (51.5+40.8). The figure for teachers was 40 (38.9 ‘much’ less + 11.1 ‘somewhat less’), but 100of teachers considered interaction with students in online class to be ‘much’ (88.9) or ‘somewhat’ (11.1) lesssatisfactory compared with in-person classes, and 100 considered online class to be ‘much’ (61.1) or‘somewhat’ (38.9) less satisfactory with regard to their perception of student learning.ConclusionThe study records a strong preference, amongst students and faculty of the Nepalese dental school enrolled inthis study, for traditional face-to-face lectures, as these are seen to provide students with the best platform toconnect with their teachers and fellow students. Perceptions are influenced by workload, perceived learningoutcomes, the desire for in-person interaction and opportunities to share knowledge with fellow students.
