RIGO, Daiana-Yamila. Perceptions of higher-level Argentine students about commitment, virtual classroom climate and future trends: between possibilities and limitations in times of pandemic. Innovaciones Educativas [online]. 2020, vol.22, suppl.1, pp.143-161. ISSN 2215-4132.  http://dx.doi.org/10.22458/ie.v22iespecial.3132.

The research presented was aimed at understanding the perspectives built by remote students on assumed academic commitment and virtual classroom climate in the context of a pandemic at the higher level of education. 109 students of higher education participated in the study, from three Argentine institutions, the National University of Río Cuarto, the University of Mendoza and the María Inmaculada Higher Institute. For data gathering, two questionnaires with closed questions and one with open questions were used. The results showed that students tend to perceive themselves as engaged and positively value the classroom climate mediated by digital platforms as an emerging education model in response to the virus responsible for COVID-19. The findings illuminate future studies that will seek to expand educational settings to extend the classroom climate in pursuit of students’ academic engagement and hand in hand with new technologies.

Palabras clave : distance education; classroom environment; interest; higher education; pandemic; COVID-19.
