Abstract :
Due to COVID 19, where people stayed in their houses to save themselves, several universities around the world are now offering online lessons. Furthermore, given that platforms such as MS Teams, Zoom, and others can be used for remote learning in both normal and non-normal situations, this study was done to analyze students` opinions and viewpoints on online education throughout the pandemic time. The computer applications course at Lebanese University`s Faculty of Tourism and Hospitality was used as an example for this study in order to better understand how students loved and understood it, and to improve the computer course online teaching based on the findings. The classes were held online using the Microsoft Teams platform and the Internet. The major goal was to listen to the students` opinions in order to assist them and make the required improvements. The software SPSS was used; The "central tendency - dispersion - distribution" for each numerical question and the "frequency distribution table" for each categorical question were calculated; The Chi-square test, the ANOVA test, and the correlation test were used to examine the relationships between the various questions.
