The massive transition from in-person to remote teaching increased the impact of technology on the everyday life of the universities. Without the face-to-face component, learning and teaching became a completely different experience for students and teachers. Recording the attitudes and perceptions of the undergraduate students on the new situation became necessary for the faculties to support them effectively. This research collected quantitative and qualitative data from 336 students of all the years of studies. The students preferred in-person teaching and reported higher engagement, learning, and understanding during classroom teaching. More senior students, who had developed face-to-face ties with their colleagues before the pandemic, found it easier to continue their interactions remotely. They were interested in matching learning with the duties and needs at the particular period of their life, despite their beliefs concerning the effectiveness of in-person teaching. The first-year students found it challenging to develop relationships remotely, and they were the most frustrated. Overall, students in the first years of their studies perceived remote teaching as dissatisfactory compared to the more senior students. Similar to other publications, the respondents of this study challenged the effectiveness of remote teaching and the concomitant transition from in-person to remote social relationships.
从面对面教学到远程教学的大规模转变增加了技术对大学日常生活的影响。由于缺少面对面的环节,学习和教学对学生和教师来说变成了一种截然不同的体验。记录本科生对新情况的态度和看法对于各学院有效支持他们来说变得很有必要。本研究收集了来自各个年级336名学生的定量和定性数据。学生们更喜欢面对面教学,并表示在课堂教学中参与度更高、学习效果更好、理解更深入。更多高年级学生在疫情之前就已经与同学建立了面对面的联系,他们发现远程继续互动更容易。尽管他们相信面对面教学的有效性,但他们还是有兴趣将学习与自己人生特定阶段的职责和需求相匹配。一年级学生发现远程建立人际关系具有挑战性,他们也是最沮丧的。总体而言,与高年级学生相比,大学低年级学生认为远程教学不尽人意。与其他出版物类似,本研究的受访者对远程教学的有效性以及随之而来的从面对面社交关系到远程社交关系的转变提出了质疑。
