  abstract = {With the emergence of Covid-19, education management raised eyebrows as schools and universities were the first ones to shift to computer aided learning technologies (CAT) with the vision that learning must never stop. ICT based learning methods have been widely applicable to this date. The study has been conducted to investigate the level of technologies used by instructors, assessment criteria for teachers in distance learning environment, challenges faced by instructors in terms of the integration of teaching technology and lastly challenges faced by students in distance learning programs in Lebanon. In order to investigate these specific objectives, a study has been conducted where primary data has been gathered using questionnaires distributed electronically amongst a sample of 90 students and 90 teachers, using random sampling methods with an adequate ethical consent. Data gathered from questionnaires has been analyzed using descriptive statistics and frequency distribution using Ms Excel. Findings of the study suggest that students in Lebanon are facing numerous issues during their transition from conventional learning to e-learning including accessibility to Internet, Computer, Learning Resources (e.g. Books and Curriculum), Electricity (e.g. Load shedding), Seating Arrangements at Home (e.g. chair, desk, table) and noise distraction at home (e.g. dog barking, child crying). Furthermore, findings suggest that challenges faced by teachers include communicating with school management, electricity disruption, noise distraction challenge, children’s participation in online classes, confusion when assessing students’ performance, difficulties using ICT based technology, frequent communication with parents, attention distraction and lack of personalized attention. Findings of this study pose significant recommendations for the ministry of education and for school authorities to overcome these issues.},
