“…Our study is in line with the results of T. Muthuprasad, S. Aiswarya, K. S. Aditya and K. Jha Girish [14], who have studied student's perception and preference towards the online learning in India during COVID-19 pandemic and advantages/disadvantages of distance learning for students. Results of the study indicate that flexible schedule and convenience was ranked as the major benefits of the online learnings.…”

“…Among other advantages students ranked more comfortable environment, enhancing the technical skills, more interaction and greater ability to concentrate and self-discipline and responsibility. The main constraints of distance learning in India are connected with technical limits (data speed, data limit, lack of connectivity) [14]. But psychological and pedagogical disadvantages of distance learning for indian students are in good agreement with our results.…”

The article presents an analysis of using distance learning technology in university education in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and the attitude of students to this format of education. The authors justify the urgency of the problem under study for modern education and update the basic requirements for education in the situation of growing uncertainty. The paper describe the methodological foundations and genesis of the development of distance learning, distinguishes the concepts of "distance education" and "distance learning". The authors determine the features of distance learning in modern conditions and highlight the main problems and contradictions that were provoked by the COVID-19 pandemic and the social isolation. The aim of this study is to evaluate emotional attitude of university students of the humanities and natural sciences to distance learning, implemented in the pandemic situation. The presented results of an empirical study reveal the pros and cons of distance learning, the active use of Internet resources by students in learning, and the willingness to rebuild in a changing environment.

“…First, despite the risk of infection, meeting in the physical world still seems to be considered important, as many idol groups have rushed to resume their ofine meet-and-greet events. Also, the invention of the on-site online one-on-one event implies that computer-mediated communication has yet to provide an alternative to the essential component of conventional meet-and-greet events, which is common to previous studies that have reported a preference for face-to-face situations in various felds [9,49].…”

“…In addition, diferent from the context of the above studies, the fact that idol groups have been forced to adopt computer technologies as an improvised alternative to face-to-face communication will elicit distinctive insights. In particular, this rapid transition to computermediated communication is observed globally and its comparison to face-to-face communication is actively discussed in various felds, like education [49] and academic conferences [9]. Then, exploring the efect of the unique characteristic of idol culture, which I described in Section 2.1, on the current situation would add a new perspective that complements these studies.…”

In Japanese idol culture, meet-and-greet events where fans were allowed to handshake with an idol member for several seconds were regarded as its essential component until the spread of COVID-19. Now, idol groups are struggling in the transition of such events to computer-mediated communication because these events had emphasized meeting face-to-face over communicating, as we can infer from their length of time. I anticipated that investigating this emerging transition would provide implications because their communication has a unique characteristic that is distinct from wellstudied situations, such as workplace communication and intimate relationships. Therefore, I frst conducted a quantitative survey to develop a precise understanding of the transition, and based on its results, had semi-structured interviews with idol fans about their perceptions of the transition. The survey revealed distinctive approaches, including one where fans gathered at a venue but were isolated from the idol member by an acrylic plate and talked via a video call. Then the interviews not only provided answers to why such an approach would be reasonable but also suggested the existence of a large gap between conventional ofine events and emerging online events in their perceptions. Based on the results, I discussed how we can develop interaction techniques to support this transition and how we can apply it to other situations outside idol culture, such as computer-mediated performing arts.

“…COVID-19 pandemic has changed the way the classes were conducted worldwide. Everyone needed to (re)adapt to the new modality of classes (Muthuprasad, Aiswarya, Aditya, & Jha, 2020) since it is the first time some countries would have this online method. Ecuador has never had online classes in the elementary and high school contexts before.…”

Introdução: A pandemia da COVID-19 mudou a forma como as aulas eram ministradas em todo o mundo. Os professores equatorianos foram obrigados a implementar aulas de forma síncrona e assíncrona. Consequentemente, todo o conteúdo foi adaptado para este novo tipo de aula. Por outro lado, os alunos, apresentam cansaço durante as aulas, desmotivação para aprender e infelicidade com a nova modalidade. Estudos têm demonstrado as vantagens do Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) para motivar os alunos. Método: Este estudo de caso teve como objetivo investigar a eficiência do ClassDojo para motivar a participação de alunos equatorianos durante as aulas online de inglês. Uma amostra de 29 alunos do sexto ano de uma escola particular, com idades entre 9 e 11 anos, participou desta pesquisa. Os dados foram coletados durante quatro meses de aulas (agosto a novembro de 2020) por meio de provas (pré e pós), entrevista e diário do professor. Resultados: Após a implementação do aplicativo, os participantes apresentaram diferença significativa entre o pré-teste (M = 2,03, DP = 1,26) e o pós-teste (M = 7,28, DP = 1,69) com p = 0,00 e d de Cohen = 3,52. Os resultados recolhidos do pré e pós-teste revelaram que o ClassDojo motivou a participação dos alunos nas aulas. Os resultados da entrevista mostraram as opiniões positivas dos alunos sobre o uso do ClassDojo. Conclusões: Este aplicativo permitiu aos participantes aprender, interagir e se divertir ao mesmo tempo. Esta pesquisa é dirigida a professores que têm aulas online e desejam aumentar a participação dos alunos.
