The pandemic impact in a higher education school: Students perceptions. WHEC 22, Unesco World Higher Education Conference, Open knowledge products.http://hdl.handle.net/10400.21/14668The pandemic situation since 2020 originated the reorganization of teaching and learning processes at various levels, being higher education no exception. Such circumstances presented a set of constraints, but at the same time opportunities, not only for students but also for teachers. The goal of this research is to characterize the student's perception in a High School of Education on the impact of the pandemic in the process of teaching and learning. Following a qualitative methodology, a group focus was organized, being the sample constituted by 5 students from the second year and 5 students from the third year of all undergraduate courses. The preliminary data here presented lay on the following analysis dimensions: classes organization in the first semester of 2020/2021, change in the interactions, teacher’s adaption and students' concerns about the professional practices. The available data point to a diversity of organization of curricular units Intra and inter graduations. It's also evident that the most predominant factor considered in the adaption is the teacher's performance. Changes have been identified with the mode of interaction, whether between colleagues of the same class or with colleagues of other courses. At least we underline the preoccupation about professional practices and subsequent consequences and meantal health issues affecting students.engCovid‐19Higher education studentsPerceptionsHybrid learningjournal article
