Abstract
After the spread of Corona and the provision of training in virtual space, challenges were created for students, the higher education system and the health institution. The purpose of this study is to investigate the extent and factors affecting the satisfaction of student teachers of Farhangian University of Alborz province with virtual education in the era of Corona. The present study was collected using a quantitative and survey method from a sample of 328 student teachers using a systematic sampling method, using a researcher-made questionnaire. The validity of the questionnaire was based on Cronbach's alpha coefficient and its validity was based on the opinions of experts. Data were analyzed using spss and Smart-PLS software. The level of academic satisfaction of the students was average. Based on the results of Pearson correlation, the variables of virtual learning, quality of teaching and interaction with professors, technology-oriented education and marriage have an effect on academic satisfaction. Also, with the increase in age and academic term, the satisfaction of students has decreased. The path analysis model also indicates that; Technology-based skills, interaction with professors, learning in the context of cyberspace and finally the quality of professors' teaching have had the greatest impact on the model of students' academic satisfaction. Therefore, considering the important role of Farhangian University in training human resources, upgrading the necessary standards and increasing the satisfaction of student teachers are important in this university.
