Abstract
This thesis aims at providing recommendations to Spanish university professors on how to manage an e-learning based module to meet students’ needs in case of a future lockdown scenario, while turning the challenges the pandemic restrictions brought into an opportunity to look into more flexible ways of teaching and learning. A sequential mixed-method was used to collect data. First, the answers from 83 Spanish students collected in the experiences of working from home in times of Covid-19 international survey (Ipsen et al., 2020) were analysed. Next, an insight into a particular university course was done by interviewing a Spanish university professor, analysing the interview results and making suggestions to manage a particular module. The data from the survey were collected and analysed to identify the students’ needs and requests during the lockdown. Having the professor’s perspective and analysing it, and understanding how a particular professor managed the course during the lockdown, provided the basis to build on the recommendations. The literature reviewed pointed at blended learning and the flipped classroom model as the basic means to meet the students’ needs.The results regarding the negative impact the lockdown had on the surveyed Spanish students match the literature reviewed. The interview did not provide the expected results in terms of the survey follow-up, but the information obtained was the basis to build on recommendations to adopt in the managing of a particular module. The key benefit of this study is providing a method that allows professors to make a smoother shift to online teaching in higher education if required, meeting students’ needs and requests
