Therefore, this study aims to assess the students' perspective on online learning classes carried out during the lockdown in 2020. The analysis is based on 2,107 valid answers from students of seven Portuguese higher education institutions that took synchronous online classes. Principal component analysis and binary logistic regression were the main quantitative methods used. This study identified five factors that, in all cases, significantly explain the students’ perspective on the transition to online classes. These factors include not only pedagogical matters (teachers’ overall quality) but also elements related to personal or motivational students’ characteristics (performance and autonomy; constraints and obstacles to socialization; self-confidence while attending online classes) and technological issues (Internet access conditions). Notwithstanding, self-confidence is not a relevant factor for students that had technical limitations in what concerns infrastructural matters. Therefore, besides confirming the factors behind the success of online classes, this research is relevant for highlighting the need to assure that students have the proper conditions regarding technical infrastructures to improve the overall quality of online classes.\u0000\u0000\u0000Keywords: COVID-19, emergency remote teaching, higher education, technical infrastructures, students’ perspective.","PeriodicalId":340394,"journal":{"name":"13th GLOBAL CONFERENCE ON BUSINESS AND SOCIAL SCIENCES","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124670096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given the above, it can be said that the subjective well-being implied by work is essential, but not the only one. The Human Development Index proposed by the United Nations Development Programme takes a comprehensive view of the material and immaterial capabilities that make up the well-being of individuals and, among them, are knowledge, healthy living and maintaining a decent life, which is why it is essential to ensure health, emotional ties with others and the satisfaction of basic needs, both physical and psychological (Aedo et al., 2020). When the individual performs a function in society, he or she manifests some degree of satisfaction that deserves to be analysed, which is why, in recent years, the importance attributed to employee satisfaction has increased considerably (Akram et al., 2021; Galvan-Vela et al., 2021). Being responsible for achieving business goals, employees are appreciated as the most valuable resource (Ali and Anwar, 2021; Stefurak et al., 2020). Moreover, the talent and enthusiasm of human resources enable the company to survive in dynamic and changing environments (Galvan-Vela et al., 2021), conditions that are present in most economic sectors today.\u0000\u0000\u0000Keywords: Organizational Justice, Work Satisfaction, Turnover Intention, Happiness Management.","PeriodicalId":340394,"journal":{"name":"13th GLOBAL CONFERENCE ON BUSINESS AND SOCIAL SCIENCES","volume":"415 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124161225","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
