Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze students’ experience of the implementation of emergency distance learning by their department due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The subjects of the study were University students of the department of Mathematics of the National and Kapodistrian University of Athens selected with a convenience sampling technique. A semi-structured questionnaire was used which was distributed online. A total of 391 student responses were collected for analysis. The study’s results indicate that students identify some positive characteristics in emergency remote teaching such as: access to recorded video lectures, efficient time management, and comfortable environment. On the other hand, they complain about network instability, lack of technical means and lack of communication in e-learning lessons. It seems that the majority of students preferred courses combining face to face and e-learning methods and evaluated as excellent the synchronous form of distance learning that uses teleconference platforms and digital boards.
