INTRODUCTION
The COVID-19 pandemic has not only changed the way people work but also
how students conduct their studies. As national lockdowns are implemented, working and
studying at home has become the norm, with some classes permanently moving to online-
based learning (Davies, 2020). Even before the pandemic, online learning has been on the
rise. The World Economic Forum (WEF) states that USD 18.99 billion was invested in
education technology in 2019 (Li & Lalani, 2020), this would show that there is an
home-based learning becomes the norm, disruptions to the regular school environment, as
well as the various challenges of organizing online classes could affect the academic
performance of students. This paper seeks to study the impact of online learning on the

learning and it has played a significant role most specially during Covid-19 pandemic. As
the said disease impacted the way people live as well as to how student learn, school and
social supporting sites and application such as Facebook, messenger, Google Meet,
Google classroom and Gmail have been beneficial to both instructor and students to have
support collaborative learning with knowledge sharing with regards to distance learning.
This transition has ended up causing a variety of psychological changes in both students
and teachers, adversely affecting their performance. In line with this, there are various

factors in online learning that could affect the students academic performance. Some
student may not be able to participate in online class discussion or may not be able to
perform their activities, because of lack of focus and motivation and most commonly,
others suffered from a lack of internet access, which is a major issue in our country and
It is along with this context that this study aims to determine the academic student
Theoretical Framework
This study is based on the “community of inquiry” model for online learning
environments developed by Garrison, Anderson & Archer (2000) that is based on the
concept of three distinct “presences”: cognitive, social, and teaching. While recognizing
the overlap and relationship among the three components, Garrison et.al. advise further
research on each component. Their model supports the design of online and blended
students sharing ideas, information, and opinions. Of particular note is that “presence” is
a social phenomenon and manifests itself through interactions among students and
instructors. The community of inquiry has become one of the more popular models for
online and blended courses that are designed to be highly interactive among students and

showed that many factors affected the academic performance of the students during the

with online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic, many studies have been done by
many researchers. A study conducted by Almusharraf and Khahro (2020) investigated the
level of students’ satisfaction with online learning during the outbreak of COVID-19. The
result of their study revealed that all the participants were greatly satisfied with online
learning tools and platforms. Their study also showed that students were satisfied with
the support provided by staff during the COVID-19 crisis. While another study was
conducted in Kazakhstan to explore distance learning and the parents’ satisfaction during
the COVID-19 pandemic of the educational quality. Their findings indicate that parents’
children have negatively correlated to the satisfaction of parents with online learning
platforms during the COVID-19. Overall, their satisfaction with the quality of online
learning is greatly positive. The findings of a study revealed by Baber (2020) are in line
with the indicated studies where the researcher found a positively great level of
satisfaction in providing online teaching. In contrast, the findings of the study revealed by
Sharma et al. (2020) indicated that the majority of their respondents are dissatisfied with
online learning platforms. Similarly, the findings of a study revealed by Dinh and
Nguyen (2020) show that online teaching and learning had a lower satisfaction level than
face-to-face teaching.

Besides, many other studies explored the level of satisfaction with online
teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic in various contexts and found a high level of
satisfaction with online teaching (Chen et al., 2020; Choe et al., 2019; Fatani, 2020). On
the other hand, Alanazi et al. (2020) studied technology satisfaction and students’
performance in online courses. They reported that there was a weaker relationship
between students’ performance and technology satisfaction in online courses. While there
was another study carried out in China by Chen et al. (2020) analyzing students’
satisfaction level with online teaching during the outbreak of COVID-19. The findings of
their study showed no direct effects found on students’ satisfaction by personal factors,
while the availability of online applications had the greatest impact on students’
satisfaction level. Despite all studies on satisfaction level, various researchers reported
high satisfaction level of students with online teaching during the COVID-19 outbreak
(Ali et al., 2011; Bauk et al., 2014; Coman et al., 2020; Johnston et al., 2005; Naziya &
Khan, 2020; Roach & Lemasters, 2006; Sharma et al., 2020; Surahman & Sulthoni,
2020). Unexpectedly, not many studies have been found with low or dissatisfaction in
online teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. Surprisingly, there were also no studies
found examining the gender differences in the academic performance of students and as
well as differences in the level of satisfaction across genders with online teaching during

dissatisfaction, and uncertainty of the application with online teaching were reported.
Based on personal experiences, most of the students did not participate in the online
session and their engagement in the online classes was so weak. On the other hand, the
uncertainty of using applications and platforms made the students to be confused about
taking part in online teaching sessions. For example, HELMS was introduced by the
19, but instead, most of the teachers were willing to teach their students through Google
Classroom, WhatsApp, and or other social Medias platform. This uncertainty of using the
platforms lead the student to be dissatisfied and surely affected their performance in
online teaching. Despite that, it was also reported that female students were not willing to
take part in the online sessions and did not accomplish the assigned task due to some
unpleasant culture and/or inequality in terms of having money to buy electronic devices
such as a computer, mobile and/or pay the cost of internet. According to Orfan (2021),
these situations are considered due to the limitation and cultural norms limit that exists in

been carried out to investigate the effects of COVID-19 on the academic achievements of
students worldwide. Unfortunately, no studies have been done to explore the effects of
satisfaction with online teaching. In this regard, the current study is an attempt to
eliminate this research gap to explore whether COVID-19 affected the students’
performance and are they satisfied with online teaching across the country. This study is
also significant on the rise to the literature in Afghanistan context and as well as to
provide insights for MoHE of Afghanistan, researchers, and students to enhance their
