The results showed that the online education system during the covid-19 pandemic in Pakistan, includes 1) the availability of gadgets, insufficient online learning materials, no access or slow internet speed, and the shedding of burdens, this negatively affects the study of students in terms of minimum participation or absence of students and attendance in online classes, 2) online learning cannot produce the desired results in underdeveloped countries such as Pakistan,  where most students are unable to access the internet due to technical as well as monetary issues, 3) challenges faced by school teachers in providing online lessons through Google Classroom, Zoom, and Microsoft Teams such as high-cost Internet packages, uncooperative learners, low attendance of learners, trust in teacher technology, limited availability of educational resources, lack of ICT knowledge, and poor network infrastructure.
