| Sumario: | This study reports the viewpoints of students on Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) in tertiary institutions in Nigeria during the COVID-19 induced schools’ closure. Three research questions guided the study. The descriptive survey design was adopted. A total of 1017 students formed the population for the study. Sample size of 100 students were drawn using simple random sampling technique. A 32 item structured questionnaire titled ‘Students’ View on Emergency Remote Teaching (SVERT)’ validated by experts with a reliability coefficient of 0.78 was used as instrument for data collection. Data was analysed using frequency, percentage and mean. The findings revealed the educational media used by NAU and KSU lecturers for ERT. It further revealed that students were satisfied with the coverage of course contents, but not fully satisfied with ERT due to inadequacy of learning activities, which led to boredom amongst isolated learners. It also found out that challenges experienced during ERT include high cost of data for internet subscription, inadequate electricity supply to keep device always charged before lectures, among others. The study recommended among others that ERT sessions should be designed with relevant and highly engaging and interactive learning activities to reduce boredom among isolated learners during learning. |
