Abstract

The purpose of this study was to identify the psychological and instructional consequences of Corona disease (Covid-19) in students and coping strategies with it. The research method was descriptive-analytical. A total of 23 articles in the Corona disease field in the databases PubMed, Scopus, SID, Google Scholar, Science Direct, and Civilica were reviewed and analyzed. The findings showed that students experienced psychological problems such as anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress disorder, stress, failure, fear, anger, feelings of loneliness and boredom as a result of Corona disease and quarantine. In the interpersonal dimension, students have experienced problems such as difficulty in communication with family members, limited communication with friends and teachers, insufficient social support, and reduced family income. In the educational dimension were identified problems such as poor cognitive and social presence in the online learning process, increased cognitive load, lack of motivation, problems in time management, and concern about evaluations. Based on the findings of this study, it is recommended that students be taught in health crises, social problem-solving skills, resilience, communication, time management, and self-caring skills. It is also recommended that parents be taught communication skills and stress management. It is suggested that in-service teacher training emphasizes the increasing teaching presence and the use of participatory learning in the online teaching process.
