The spread of E-learning accelerated exponentially during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, teaching science requires more attention than other subjects because it contains more practical activities and hands-on experiences. This study examines science teachers' perception of using E-learning platforms in teaching 8th-grade science during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. Twenty science teachers from 12 private schools participated in this study. The participants' perspectives were ascertained by a researcher-developed survey and a follow-up personal interview. To reinforce the data gathered from the survey, nine science teachers participated in an open-ended interview. The demographic variables used were gender, age, and years of experience. The results revealed that most teachers have positive perceptions towards E-learning. Furthermore, female teachers showed superiority over male teachers in embracing E-learning platforms. Moreover, younger teachers with fewer years of experience had more positive perceptions of using E-learning platforms than older teachers with more experience. However, most science teachers still do not consider E-learning a complete alternative to traditional classroom teaching. Based on the findings, this study proposes that schools increase their investment in and utilisation of E-learning platforms to enhance education and promote independent learning among students.

This study investigates the extent of science teachers' knowledge of canned foods. In the study, quantitative research design was adopted. An electronic questionnaire was administered to 56 teachers from various majors of Science, and from medical specialties on voluntary basis that were selected using purposive sampling method. In addition, 10 interviews were conducted with 10 randomly selected teachers among the participant teachers in order to clarify the effects of gender and monthly income on the choice of canned foods in the market, particularly during the time of COVID -19 pandemic. Results revealed that there were significant differences in participant's knowledge of nutrition labels for the canned foods attributed of gender in most of the questions. On other side, there were no significant differences in participant's knowledge of nutrition labels for the canned foods attributed to monthly income.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
