(1) This study demonstrates how a Saudi university has responded to the COVID-19 lockdown in order to examine the success factors and highlight any challenges. The main purpose was to determine the perceptions of students and faculty towards emergency online distance learning from a teaching and learning perspective; (2) A cross-faculty study was conducted: two different self-administered questionnaires were developed for students and faculty, respectively. In addition, data was collected from official reports; (3) The results show that students had a more positive perception of e-Learning despite the difficulties that they may have faced, while faculty results leaned slightly towards a negative perception. However, there was not a definite positive or negative perception, depending on the aspect of teaching that was being evaluated. The study also indicated that faculty and students’ gender had no significant effect on their perceptions. Overall results showed that the university performed well in accordance with three of the five pillars of online learning quality framework in terms of student satisfaction, access and scalability. On the other, improvements are needed to achieve better results for faculty satisfaction and learning effectiveness; (4) The findings present a number of suggestions for increasing satisfaction to improve the online learning experience post COVID-19.

The aim of the work is a comprehensive assessment of the teaching quality at the Department of Internal Medicine №1 of the Poltava State Medical University. The assessment of monitoring was an anonymous online survey of VI year education medical students that was trained at the modules “Current practice of internal medicine” and “Emergency conditions in the clinic of Internal Medicine” in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was shown that, despite the greatest difficulty of the “Cardiology” and “Hematology” cycles, the overall assessment of the teaching availability for all cycles was 4,16±0,416 points and the value of any cycle was not lower than 4 (5-point system). Given the conditions of distance learning in connection with the COVID-19 pandemic caused by the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 the average score of student satisfaction with the skills acquired was 3.59 ± 0.593. Students noted that the most difficult mastering practical skills were on the “Emergency” (16.14%) and “Cardiology” (15.18%) cycles. This indicates that any cases, situational tasks, demonstration videos can’t replace live communication with the patient, under the guidance of a teacher-mentor, work with modern equipment and simulators. These results reflect that students need bedside teaching activities on patients’ experiences with teacher-mentor. A targeted approach to teaching and evaluating the learning process encourages feedback from students to improve the quality of educational services. Thus, the data allow us to analyze the effectiveness of distance educational quality using anonymous questionnaires, to get feedback and respond to the identified shortcomings.

This chapter explores the satisfaction level of students from Virtual University of Pakistan mode of e-learning. The research aimed at explaining the various factors of adopting the e-learning mode as well as inquiring about the determinant of satisfaction from virtual educational systems. The quantitative study was conducted through survey method; 240 respondents were selected from all the Virtual University campuses through simple random sampling. Questionnaires based on 25 items were constructed to measure the satisfaction. One sample t-test and regression analysis were applied for data analysis. Results revealed that a majority of the students prefer this institute due to high teaching standards. Interactivity pattern was explained as the main predictor of students' satisfaction from the system. Findings of the study lead to the practical implications and identify the need of face-to-face communication and betterment in interactivity patterns between instructors and students to enhance students' satisfaction from the system.

Universities and educational institutions are currently becoming more dependent on delivering courses within online virtual worlds, such as 3D Virtual Learning Environments (3D VLES). There is insufficient research on how environmental and architectural design elements of 3D virtual educational spaces and buildings inside these virtual worlds can affect the e-learning process of the students and their satisfaction and contentment. This study investigates students’ satisfaction from different architectural features used in 3D educational facilities by recording, from surveys, students’ degree of agreeability toward varied design characteristics in different learning spaces within 3D VLES. Defining best perceived design traits can improve 3D educational space design to augment a student’s overall e-learning experience, and lead to general design guidelines for future creation of 3D virtual educational facilities.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to focus on the relationship between student assessment method and e-learning satisfaction. Which e-learning assessment method do students prefer? The assessment method is an additional determinant of the effectiveness and quality that affects user satisfaction with online courses. Design/methodology/approach The study employs data from 1,114 students. The first set of data was obtained from a questionnaire on the online platform. The second set of information was obtained from the external assessment reports by e-learning specialists. The satisfaction revealed by the students in their responses to the questionnaire is the dependent variable in the multivariate technique. In order to estimate the influence of the independent variables on the global satisfaction, we use the ordinary least squares technic. This method is the most appropriate for dependent discrete variables whose categories are ordered but have multiple categories, as is the case for the dependent variable. Findings The method influences e-learning satisfaction, even though only slightly. The students are reluctant to be assessed by a final exam. Students prefer systems that award more importance to the assessment of coursework as part of the final mark. Practical implications Knowing the level of student satisfaction and the factors that influence it is helpful to the teachers for improving their courses. Originality/value In online education, student satisfaction is an indicator of the quality of the education system. Although previous research has analyzed the factors that influence e-student satisfaction, to the best of authors’ knowledge, no previous research has specifically analyzed the relationship between assessment systems and general student satisfaction with the course.
