E-learning has been extensively integrated into the educational system during the COVID-19 pandemic, aiming to enhance the quality of education. While introducing numerous benefits and positive impacts, this rapid transition has also posed new challenges that could potentially increase anxiety among elementary school teachers. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the relationship between web-based teaching components during the COVID-19 pandemic and anxiety levels among elementary school teachers, providing practical operational solutions. This research is applied in terms of purpose and correlational in terms of methodology. The statistical population of the study included all elementary school teachers in the city of Amol, totaling 750 individuals. A sample of 256 teachers was randomly selected from the city of Amol. Data were collected using the Salmi Anxiety Questionnaire, Abedini Chogordani, Ghasemi Nafchi, and Tabashir (2021), and a researcher-made questionnaire to measure web-based teaching components. The validity of the questionnaires was confirmed through face validity, and Cronbach's alpha coefficient was employed to determine the reliability of the research instrument. Data analysis was conducted using Pearson correlation coefficient and multiple regression analysis. The findings indicated that the contributions of web-based teaching components, including support and virtual learning infrastructure (169.0), learning and technological complexity (141.0), electronic content production (267.0), and type of course instruction (203.0), were significant predictors of teachers' anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the contribution of the effective assessment component (107.0) was not statistically significant. Virtual education infrastructure, learning technological skills, acquiring content production skills, type of course instruction, were negative predictors of teachers' anxiety during the pandemic. The results of the study revealed a significant negative relationship between some web-based teaching components and anxiety levels. Therefore, it is recommended to reduce teaching anxiety in web-based education by implementing empowerment courses to develop online teaching skills, producing effective content, and fostering technological development in in-service teacher training.

The present study aimed to identify the challenges of online- only system in the era of COVID-19. The qualitative research approach and the research synthesis method were adopted. The statistical population of the study included the research studies conducted during the COVID-19 in the field of e-learning system challenges which were collected from Scopus, Science direct, Eric, ResearchGate, and Google Scholar databases via using specific keywords. A total of 120 studies were selected and reviewed. After several screening stages among these studies, 47 study units were selected and reviewed based on their title, abstract, and research content, respectively. Research data were collected from qualitative analysis of the studied documents. Content analysis method was employed to analyze the research data. Analysis of the data revealed that the e-learning system in the COVID-19 era has challenges in twelve factors related to students, teachers, and managers which include ICT access and usage, studying and teaching from home, e-learning skills, content quality, teaching method, research activities, psychological factors, learning activities, evaluation, programs and policies, macro-social factors, and support.
