An Investigation on Student Perspectives on Online Learning
Abstract
While there was a short reprieve with the Corona Virus in 2021, the new Omicron strain could potentially rewind the clock back to 2019. What important lessons were learnt in these past two years, and are there benefits to online learning beyond virus prevention? The author examined perspectives and experiences on what it was like learning remotely as a university student. Surveys and one on one interviews were conducted on a target demographic of students. The research had surprisingly mixed results both positive and negative. When asked which style of learning students preferred, there was a three-way split between online, face-to-face, and a blend of both. Although many students and teachers are quick to assume that face-to-face learning allows young people to enjoy a more “normal” university life – the results indicate that there are cases where learning online should have serious consideration.
