Assessing Students' Feelings During COVID-19 Pandemic Situation in Brazil: A Case Study in Paraiba Inland

Published:22 January 2021Publication History

ABSTRACT

With the emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic, classes were suspended in many educational institutions around the world. In Brazil, the suspension occurred at the beginning of the educational year, that start in March. This situation lasts for the entire first semester, leading institutions to move to online classes and changing the educational calendar for the next years. The reality of online classes leads to a discussion of a new pedagogical work, where the students and educators should understand how to deal with online learning and take most of the online tools. To achieve this is necessary to understand how students felt during the suspension of presential classes, the resources, and motivation that they have to continue to study. This work proposes a survey that measures three different components that can affect students in return of the online classes: resources that they have to study, feelings experienced during the suspension of the classes, and if they live in the city where they study. This survey was applied to an educational campus that attracts many students from other cities due to the quality of the education provided.
