Abstract: (296 Views)
Background: Iran is one of the few countries that has closed schools and universities since the beginning of the pandemic. This study examines students' views on the challenges of reopening universities.
Materials and methods: The study is a cross-sectional study and its statistical population consists of students of Iranian universities. Data were collected by electronic questionnaire (N=20534) which were based on a review of resources, interviews with stakeholders and meetings with experts.
Results: Half of the families agreed with the reopening of the universities and the other half opposed it. 56% of the participants rated the economic situation of their family as moderate and during the quarantine and absence from universities, they had many challenges with their family members and 76.6% of them admitted. The relationship between family agreement with the reopening of the university and sex, Vaccination of family members and History of coronavirus infection by family members, is a direct and strong one. Students with poorer economic status had less passive attendance and less satisfaction.
Discussion: It is necessary for the country's education system to identify vulnerable students (such as students with inadequate access to electronics and the Internet, such as those living in rural areas / students who have lost a close family member due to the Covid-19 pandemic). Students with family economic problems / Students with psychiatric disorders).
conclusion: Students and their parents have concerns about the reopening, which, if addressed, will increase reluctance and motivation.
