A Multidimensional Experience Perspective of Remote Online Education During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Abstract

The UK's higher education sector continues to be one of the most dynamic in the world, attracting 2,697,380 students by March 2021. The population of UK higher education students as a whole is extremely diverse and reflects a globalised version of contemporary higher education. Globalization, high-quality education, and increased competition for HE degrees have re-energized student migration, resulting in the formation of cross-cultural student environments at educational institutions worldwide. In essence, this culturally diverse higher education sector in the United Kingdom was expected to experience a range of effects from the COVID-19 pandemic crisis on students with asymmetric cultural backgrounds. This chapter provides a multidimensional experience of remote online education during the COVID-19 crisis.
