摘要

在 COVID-19 大流行的第一波浪潮中，向在线教学的过渡引发了对教育质量的各种担忧。本研究调查了这一转变对意大利北部一所著名大学学生成绩的影响。通过全面的行政数据，我们可以监测学生的成绩，并获得有关他们的详细社会经济信息。通过使用带有讲师固定效应的差分设计，我们利用了与 2020 年夏季学期开始同时进行的封锁的独特时机。我们发现，在封锁之后，学生的高等教育平均成绩没有受到明显影响。

The COVID-19 pandemic: a threat to higher education? Evidence from a large university in Northern Italy

Transition to online teaching during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic has led to various concerns about educational quality. The study investigates the consequences of this transition on student performance for a prominent university in Northern Italy. Comprehensive administrative data allows us to monitor students’ performance and to have detailed socioeconomic information about them. Using a difference-in-differences design with lecturer fixed effects, we exploit the unique timing of the lockdown that fell together with the start of the summer term in 2020. We find no marked effects on students’ average grades in higher education in the immediate aftermath of the lockdown.

期刊介绍： The Journal for Labour Market Research is a journal in the interdisciplinary field of labour market research. As of 2016 the Journal publishes Open Access. The journal follows international research standards and strives for international visibility. With its empirical and multidisciplinary orientation, the journal publishes papers in English language concerning the labour market, employment, education / training and careers. Papers dealing with country-specific labour market aspects are suitable if they adopt an innovative approach and address a topic of interest to a wider international audience. The journal is distinct from most others in the field, as it provides a platform for contributions from a broad range of academic disciplines. The editors encourage replication studies, as well as studies based on international comparisons. Accordingly, authors are expected to make their empirical data available to readers who might wish to replicate a published work on request. Submitted papers, who have passed a prescreening process by the editors, are generally reviewed by two peer reviewers, who remain anonymous for the author. In addition to the regular issues, special issues covering selected topics are published at least once a year. As of April 2015 the Journal for Labour Market Research has a "No Revisions" option for submissions (see ‘Instructions for Authors’).
