Abstract

Since the outbreak of COVID-19, online learning has been increasingly utilized in education worldwide. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Mongolia implemented restrictions on classroom activities, with a shift to online learning for certain periods, alternating between online learning and in-person teaching, resulting in varying percentages of remote learning for students across school years, and intermittent interruptions to classroom learning in the event of COVID-19 cases reported in schools. This research seeks to investigate and understand the perspectives of both students and teachers regarding the recently implemented blended learning approach, and assess the overall impact and effectiveness of this approach on teaching and learning outcomes. It should be noted that the distance learning part of blended learning is thoroughly reviewed as it is a completely new practice for Mongolian secondary schooling. Questionnaires on the current implementation of blended learning and school readiness have been collected from educational institutions in Darkhan-Uul province and analyzed accordingly in this research. The survey questionnaire was taken by cross-sectional survey method. According to our survey, it appears that students are struggling to adapt to the online learning situation. The survey conducted as part of the study revealed that students lack confidence in using computers, have a negative impression of online learning, and feel that their teachers do not provide clear instructions. Additionally, the surveys of both students and teachers indicate that adapting to online learning is not an easy task for students. The study reveals that students struggle to adapt to the online learning situation, as indicated by their lack of confidence in using computers, negative impressions of online learning, and unclear lesson preparations by teachers.
