“…Another study highlights students in China perceiving there to be high online learning participation costs, particularly from the high costs of purchasing internet data time for an online learning experience [33]. Finally, one researcher identified that students who were educated using an online learning management system participated less in the learning process [34]. The rapid spread of COVID-19 forced educational institutions across the world to change many of their educational practices at a hitherto unprecedented speed and clearly the influence has been regarded quite differently by the authors mentioned above, with some welcoming the shift and seeing the benefits it will bring to educational institutions in the future, and others being more cautious or even negative.…”

This rapid systematic review aims to examine emerging evidence on the effects of COVID-19 on educational institutions and assess the prevalence of e-learning changes in the sector. This paper reviews literature on learning, teaching, and assessment approaches adopted since the COVID-19 outbreak, and assesses the impact on the sector, staff, and students, summarizing findings from peer-reviewed articles. It categorizes these into five key themes: (1) digital learning, (2) e-learning challenges, (3) digital transition to emergency virtual assessment (EVA), (4) psychological impact of COVID-19, and (5) creating collaborative cultures. This represents the first systematic review of COVID-19’s impact on education, clarifying current themes being investigated. The author suggests that the term ‘emergency virtual assessment’ (EVA) is now added for future research discussion. Finally, the paper identifies research gaps, including researching the impact on lesser developed countries, the psychological impact of transition, and the important role of leadership and leadership styles during the transition and handling of the pandemic.

“…Kim and Ekachai (2020) find that engagement is lower among those students who rely only on online learning tools for their educational needs. Studies including Zainuddin et al (2020), Mailizar et al (2020) and Zhou et al (2020) examine the effect of online learning on the student body and student capability, compared to face-to-face teaching.…”

Purpose This study aims to examine the experiences of UK higher education students and the impact that emergency-imposed changes had on their learning, teaching and assessment (LTA) during the lockdown. It reflects on the views of students on how these changes impacted their education and personal circumstances. It makes suggestions, based on student observations, on how educators might support students’ LTA learning experiences more effectively. Design/methodology/approach The study uses an anonymous online questionnaire, imposed by lockdown and closure of universities, to gather the views of HE students across the UK on how COVID-19 and lockdown affected their education and personal circumstances. Using a cross-sectional study, participants were asked to complete several questions, providing quantitative and qualitative data which is analysed for the study. A total of 349 participants took part in the questionnaire and data were analysed descriptively. Findings Key findings suggest that the use of online virtual classrooms as a substitute for traditional face-to-face LTA has its positives and its negatives. The most significant positives are the “flexible assessments” and “digital content” and, in contrast, one of the significant drawbacks is the lack of interactions, this being true for both male and female students. However, as compared to females, males found to be missing “the campus life” more during the lockdown. Finally, the majority of student felt that there was a lack of support from the university and teaching staff during the lockdown. Universities’ governance must take control of how this issue is driven forward and learn from the experience of students. Originality/value The study makes three contributions: firstly, using students’ views to open a fresh debate on LTA approaches during the pandemic; secondly, examining the impact on student experiences due to the changes introduced because of lockdown; and finally, suggesting strategies to be implemented by HE management based on the opinions of participating students.

“…Faculty also shows that lack of interaction with the students brings low performance to the instructors. However, online courses help the faculty to achieve learning outcomes and academic syllabi [13]. Some of the faculty faced problems to organize the online classes, on the other hand, many of them are able to conduct the "online learning process" and they describe that it is easy for them to educate…”
