Abstract
This study is motivated by a desire to understand the challenges tutors and student-teachers of distant teaching and learning at the University of Makeni face as they pursue higher teachers’ education in Mathematics/Statistics. The research was carried out in northern Sierra Leone. Data were collected and processed. The study utilizes structured questionnaires to the study population, which were analyzed through tables, frequencies, marginal percentages, and the logistic regression model to produce descriptive and inferential statistics. The statistical analysis was done at a 95 percent significant level using the SPSS version (20). Insufficient time, moderate institutional and individual participation, lack of devices and capabilities to access online teaching and learning materials, and more are the findings. Findings suggest UniMak to do more to sustain effective and balanced teaching and learning system that will satisfy the learners' desires to return to UniMak for future studies or recommend the institution to their colleagues.
