Abstract

Due to the COVID-19, online education has become a popular trend worldwide. Many universities use digital materials, such as Zoom, Skype and Team, instead of face-to-face teaching to avoid infection. This article uses SWOT methods to describe the advantages, disadvantages, opportunities and threats of digital materials in British education. It shows that students can learn how to manage and arrange their time through online teaching. Besides, it will help professors and students to save much time to do or learn extra things and lessons. However, it also will bring some weaknesses to students, such as distraction and no communication. In order to solve these problems, many critics claim that government and education institutions demand to set up new educational systems to supervise students, even the schools. For example, schools can offer training courses for professors and lectures on how to attract students’ interests in online classes. Furthermore, a website learning platform can put forward the choices for students to choose what they want to learn. However, the article still has some defects, for example, it does not have enough data to support the ideas about using online education among all the students from international homes. Moreover, although online education has a long-time use, it still becomes a new one in the new media during the Covid-19, so it does not have sufficient points and opinions to build a new system. Therefore, it causes many issues and influences when students, professors, and schools use digital materials in online classes, such as an unstable network, distraction, and no communication.
