摘要

在新冠肺炎疫情期间,迫切需要继续提供教学,这促使了从面对面教学到在线学习的突然转变。由于全国所有的机构都选择关闭中小学和大学,城市和农村的学生都不得不适应新的标准。因此,本研究采用描述质性研究设计,并进行深度访谈,以确定农村地区语言学习者在线学习的挑战和应对机制。此外,通过专题分析对反馈进行转录和分析。该研究的参与者是7名语言学习者,2名男性和5名女性,他们在农村地区在线学习。从访谈中我们发现,学生面临的挑战包括网络连接问题、缺乏对课程的全面讨论、同龄人/同学之间的互动较少、提高口语技能的机会很少以及缺乏反馈机制。研究还发现,学生们的应对机制包括搬到已知有更多互联网接入的地方,不理会公共干扰,独立学习,储备电池,以及向同龄人寻求支持。

Virtual Learning: Challenges and Coping Mechanisms of Language Learners in Rural Areas
The sudden shift from face-to-face instruction to online-based learning was prompted by the urgent necessity to continue the delivery of instruction amidst the COVID outbreak. Since all the country’s institutions have opted to close schools and universities, students in both urban cities and rural towns have had to adjust to the new standard. Hence, this research study employed a descriptive-qualitative research design and conducted in-depth interviews to determine the challenges and coping mechanisms of language learners studying online in rural areas. Moreover, responses were transcribed and analyzed through thematic analysis. The participants of the study were seven language learners, two males and five females who study online in rural areas. It was discovered from the interviews that among the challenges encountered are problems with internet connectivity, lack of comprehensive discussion of lessons, less interaction among peers/classmates, rare opportunity to enhance speaking skills, and absence of feedback mechanism. It was also found that students’ coping mechanisms include relocating to places known to have a greater internet access, disregarding public distractions, studying independently, reserving battery, and asking support from peers.
