Abstract: The world's nations are faced with an exceptional situation brought on by the coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19). In fact, this virus has changed our life and it has limited the number of people congregating in public places. Therefore, many institutions (states, establishments and private institutions) have taken all possible measures to effectively and responsibly prevent the risks of this epidemic. In education as well, such measures have been taken. Several platforms and resources have been used to help students, parents and teachers in order to facilitate students learning during this period. In this study, 101 teachers at the University of Guelma (Algeria) were selected randomly to analyse their opinions about the use of the adopted e-learning platform in their distance teaching. After using this platform for three months, teachers propose different improvements that will help learners and teachers to support the reformation of education at any emergency.

Keywords: e-learning platform; COVID-19 pandemic; e-learning; Moodle; Algerian universities.
