The study aims to find out the perceptions of university faculty who taught the courses online during the Covid-19 pandemic in March 2020. The purpose is to highlight the issues of students and faculty involved in the new context of teaching and learning and prepare them to face the technical and academic challenges. A questionnaire is circulated among the faculty of universities in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The majority of the university faculty who taught the courses online from the middle of the semester are satisfied with their teaching. However, they prefer face-to-face instruction to online instruction. A few of them are in favor of blended learning. The faculty accepts technical and academic issues and issues related to the trust and the value of online instruction. The study is helpful for all the educational institutions, teachers, and students across the world to understand how to conduct online education during crises and calamities to eradicate the technical and academic problems present in the online mode of teaching, and to update and accept the changing trends and developments in the field of education. The article is original because it studies the perceptions of the regular university faculty who taught half of the course face-to-face and the other half online. The novelty lies in finding out how they participated in online teaching during the lockdown period of the Covid-19 pandemic.

该研究旨在了解在 2020 年 3 月 Covid-19 大流行期间在线教授课程的大学教师的看法。目的是突出学生和教师在新的教学和学习环境中的问题，并为他们做好准备面临技术和学术挑战。一份问卷在沙特阿拉伯王国的大学教员中分发。从学期中期开始在线教授课程的大多数大学教师都对他们的教学感到满意。然而，他们更喜欢面对面的教学而不是在线教学。他们中的一些人赞成混合学习。教师接受技术和学术问题以及与在线教学的信任和价值相关的问题。该研究对所有教育机构、教师、和世界各地的学生了解如何在危机和灾难中进行在线教育，以消除在线教学模式中存在的技术和学术问题，并更新和接受教育领域不断变化的趋势和发展。这篇文章是原创的，因为它研究了普通大学教师的看法，他们一半的课程是面对面授课，另一半是在线授课。新颖之处在于找出他们在 Covid-19 大流行的封锁期间如何参与在线教学。这篇文章是原创的，因为它研究了普通大学教师的看法，他们一半的课程是面对面授课，另一半是在线授课。新颖之处在于找出他们在 Covid-19 大流行的封锁期间如何参与在线教学。这篇文章是原创的，因为它研究了普通大学教师的看法，他们一半的课程是面对面授课，另一半是在线授课。新颖之处在于找出他们在 Covid-19 大流行的封锁期间如何参与在线教学。
