The Guardian: Students like the flexibility': why online universities are here to stay
New research suggests that 20% of students are reconsidering plans to start university in the autumn – a possible 120,000 student shortfall. Yet so far, the University and College Admissions Service reports that very few have reneged on their offers. And for those already at university, a National Union of Students survey found that almost half of students were happy with their online learning.
(…) These positive experiences may permanently transform universities, believes Vijay Govindarajan, a business innovation professor at Dartmouth College in the US. “Universities can create high-quality multimedia experiences online. Lectures can be recorded in HD and reused, so more of professors’ time can be spent on interacting with students. This will improve the overall quality of learning,” he says. “Online learning might have been a long time coming in higher education, but it’s here to stay.”

Hepi poll: most university students want exams to continue online
A greater proportion of students would prefer their assessments to take place online than be cancelled, according to a survey of undergraduates.
The survey of about 1,000 undergraduates, carried out by YouthSight for the Higher Education Policy Institute, found that only 36 per cent of students believed that their assessments for the rest of the year should be cancelled because of the coronavirus outbreak.
It found that 42 per cent expect universities to continue assessments online and 17 per cent would prefer the assessments to be postponed until after the crisis.
(…) The poll did also show there was a slight variation in perspective depending on which year the student was in: 44 per cent of first year students thought that assessments should be cancelled, compared with 32 per cent of second-year students and 31 per cent of students in their third year.
According to the survey, most students are satisfied with the way their university has communicated with them: 70 per cent said they felt the messaging from their higher education institution on coronavirus has been either clear or very clear
(…) The survey also showed that 49 per cent of the students surveyed were happy with the online learning put in place by their institution to replace face-to-face teaching. This was compared with 23 per cent of students who were dissatisfied and 29 per cent who said that they were neither satisfied or dissatisfied.
