Type of session: presentations with discussion

Description

Since the Covid-19 pandemic started and higher education activities transitioned (sometimes abruptly) to the online, we have seen many opinions, struggles and best practices from eLearning experts, teachers and researchers. During this webinar, we propose to find out how this process was seen through the students’ eyes. Students from various countries will share their experiences, challenges and offer best practices examples. We will find out what types of activities and technologies they enjoyed more and which less. We will try to conclude with their vision about the future of higher education after last year’s experience.
