Investigating Online Learning Experience of Chinese University Students during the COVID-19

Abstract

This study reports the results of an investigation into online learning experiences among a group of Chinese university students during the COVID-19. Specifically, it aims to understand the students' perceived online learning experiences, teacher caring behavior, and resilience. Dates were collected by a questionnaire upon 189 undergraduate students from a local university in China. Analysis of the collected data reveals that the participants were satisfied at their online learning experiences, displaying a strong resilience, and receiving adequate support from their teachers, though a small part of them still thought that their teachers could have done better. The results are implicative for improving better online learning and support the students during the hard time in China and other similar contexts. © 2021 ACM.
