“…Between those ends there are some more categories, like early adopters, early majority and late majority. Adaptability in education (Green et al 2020) on individual and community levels is very significant, especially if one considers education as a public good as we do. It is therefore essential to know in what "section" of the above curve our students are and to listen to their suggestions attentively, in order to improve the teaching procedure and academic life.…”

Around the globe Covid-19 pandemic has influenced not only the education, but also our everyday life, among other aspects. In Greece, distance learning started to get in use widely in tertiary education, since the first national lockdown was announced and reshaped education in many ways. In the University of Thessaly, in the Department of Mathematics, undergraduate students opt for a lot of different courses to attend and due to the Covid-19 crisis all of them are taught via web platforms. Some of the most significant theoretical subjects are «Calculus» (with applications in Science and Mechanics), «Physics» (Classical Mechanics) and «Philosophy of Science». In addition, some other applied subjects are «Programming Languages» and «Digital Technologies in Mathematics Education» and the impact the above have, generally in education and society itself. In this paper, we describe the different ways students have reacted regarding learning Sciences in a distance learning environment. We split our case study in two parts. The first one is about the way students experience e-learning and the second one is about their suggestions for the next day. Integrating e-questionnaires and interviews and taking into account parameters like economic factors and the permanent residence issue, we asked the students about their preferences among face-to-face learning, distance learning and a blended model. Remarks about the academic life and the possible ways of taking the extra step, after the Covid-19 crisis ceases to exist, are made.

“…Women were further disadvantaged because of their added responsibilities of taking care of their families (Käpplinger and Lichte 2020), resulting in the gender inequity unintentionally holding them back. If education is to be seen as an investment for a productive society (Green et al 2021), adversities like these will perpetually render underprivileged societies unproductive. This portrays the hallmark of an unequal society and the dire urgency for education institutions, particularly ODeL, to streamline online education, which is accessible to all students.…”

“…The intention to bring equity and close the gap through education is therefore thwarted when some students are unable to access education (Green et al 2021). Dichaba and Setlhodi (2017) found that affordance was the main challenge for needy students who struggled accessing new technologies and data, which maintained the status quo for those from deprived environments.…”

Emergency remote teaching due to the Covid-19 pandemic has fast-tracked the need for transformation of distance learning, amplified issues of access and equity, and exposed the necessity to assure and ensure quality distance learning. This study applied a qualitative literature and material review by using the MAXQDA-analysis method to identify whether the current measures (following Covid-19 protocol) are accessible to all students at the right time and establishing links regarding access equity and quality. The results revealed that online distance education is a strategy to be enhanced towards ensuring credible distance learning. The results show the intersection and fit of access, equity, and quality in distance learning as perpetual social justice issues. Online education and what is required to make it accessible, related online learning material that is accessible for all, and needy students’ support should therefore be prioritised.
