Abstract

The purpose of this study was to investigate the attitudes of elementary teachers about virtual education during the Crohn's disease epidemic. For this purpose, a qualitative research method with a phenomenological approach was used. Among primary school teachers in Alborz, Markazi, Tehran, Ilam and West Azarbaijan provinces, 67 teachers were selected by purposive sampling method. Data were collected by semi-organized interview and analyzed by Miles and Haberman method using NVivo program. . The results of data analysis are in 4 main areas including: educational strategies, challenges, support, teacher motivation, student interest. The results show that teaching strategies, educational media, training time and evaluations need to be changed. Teachers face challenges due to technical barriers, student participation, student conditions, and online learning experience. To succeed in e-learning, they need the support of administrators, administrators, and parents, and must maintain the motivation and interest of themselves and their students during the e-learning process.
