Although there is substantial research on the effectiveness of online learning at individual class level, little reliable data how a shift to mostly or fully virtual campus would impact undergraduates’ satisfaction, engagement, and academic achievement. Until COVID-19 pandemic, limited adoption widespread selective schools challenges selection bias hindered assessment such in institutions. After initial period “emergency remote learning” 2020, many institutions continued second year pandemic. Treating expanded deployment as natural experiment, present study assesses frequent during spring semester 2021 representative samples undergraduate students three selective, four-year universities. The finds that who participated classes met person least once week had higher evaluations faculty engagement overall levels compared those never rarely an in-person class. This relationship appears less pronounced for Black Asian than White but does not vary significantly by gender. has great potential, these results suggest need better understand conditions will support expansion can maintain student satisfaction.

Introduction/Aim The purpose of this study is to investigate the key predictors online learning system continuance intention using expectation-confirmation theory and information success model as theoretical framework. Methods A total 537 respondents participated in questionnaire measure their self-reported responses eight constructs (perceived usefulness, interaction, confirmation, satisfaction, intention, quality, service quality). Convenience sampling was used obtain participants study. Partial least square structural equation for data analysis. Results results showed that all hypotheses were validated except there no significant positive relationship between interaction student satisfaction. Meanwhile, variance reached 74.0%, falling within moderate substantial. In addition, multi-group analysis perceived satisfaction gender difference above two relationships. Discussion Finally, also puts forward practical implications college students’ system.
