Abstract

Since December of 2019, every human being is exploring solutions to adapt to the “new normal” in all aspects due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and there is no exception for educators. Apart from the obstacles faced by teachers in the switching of teaching pedagogies from a physical classroom setting to different virtual platforms, there are also foreseeable challenges faced by students which might have been neglected by most studies. Semi-structured interviews have been conducted with students of UK top-up degree programmes studying in Hong Kong to explore insights of the challenges and barriers of online distance education from the students' perspectives.
