Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic significantly impacted higher education, accelerating the adoption of digital technologies to ensure teaching continuity. This study explores university faculty perceptions of online and hybrid teaching in a post-pandemic context at a public university in Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil. Using an applied and exploratory qualitative approach, the study achieved a 72% response rate, with 89% of participants holding a PhD. Before the pandemic, 57% did not use online or hybrid methods, but 50% adopted them afterward. Resistance remains due to a lack of training and technological challenges. While online learning enables guest speakers and multimedia resources, faculty find student engagement and technology barriers challenging. Hybrid learning is preferred, though faculty believe student performance is better in face-to-face settings. Continuous faculty training, improved infrastructure, and AI integration are essential to overcoming these challenges and fostering a more resilient and inclusive higher education system.
