Emergency remote teaching and students’ academic performance in higher education during the COVID-19 pandemic: A case study
Open accessAbstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has caused a massive disruption in the way traditional higher education institutions deliver their courses. Unlike transitions from face-to-face teaching to blended, online or flipped classroom in the past, changes in emergency remote teaching –a temporary shift of instructional delivery to an alternate remote delivery mode due to crisis circumstances– happen suddenly and in an unplanned way. This study analyzes the move to emergency remote teaching at the School of Telecommunication Engineering (Universidad Politécnica de Madrid), and the impact of organizational aspects related to unplanned change, instruction-related variables –class size, synchronous/asynchronous delivery– and use of digital supporting technologies, on students' academic performance. Using quantitative data of academic records across all (N = 43) courses of a bachelor's degree programme in Telecommunication Engineering and qualitative data from a questionnaire delivered to all (N = 43) course coordinators, the research also compares the academic results of students during the COVID-19 pandemic with those of previous years. The results of this case study show an increase in students' academic performance in emergency remote teaching, and support the idea that organizational factors may contribute to successful implementation of emergency remote teaching; the analysis does not find differences across courses with different class sizes or delivery modes. The study further explores possible explanations for the results of the analysis, considering organizational, individual and instruction-related aspects.

“Additionally, the degree of diversification in how the organization reacts –changes across three dimensions: the clients it serves, the goods and services it produces, and the technologies it employs– affects performance in a way that the more closely the new activities are related to the previous ones, the greater the probability of success.”

“While bureaucratic systems are effective in implementing planned change (Knowles & Saxberg, 1988), they are generally not efficient in responding to unplanned or punctuational changes because of the numerous rules under which they operate and their natural tendency to resist to innovation (Haveman, 1992; Knowles & Saxberg, 1988).”

The paper relies on this without support.
Before COVID-19, research on how to make sudden transitions rapidly and on the potential effects of instructors' decisions about instructional methods or supporting technologies was uncharted.
“However, research on how to make these sudden transitions rapidly, and the potential effects of the decisions taken by institutions and instructors regarding the use of different instructional methods or supporting technologies, means (or at least meant before COVID-19) venturing into uncharted territory.”
The paper relies on this without support.
Instructors' adaptation decisions depend on their familiarity with online learning and supporting technologies and on how compatible the new situation is with their prior instructional methods.
“These decisions depend on the familiarity of instructors with online learning and supporting technologies, as well as the compatibility of the new situation with the instructional methods that they have been using over the years.”
The authors state this as an assumption.
Students in this degree have the necessary digital skills and resources to succeed in an online course.
“However, in our case, that assumption seems reasonable because (1) young people with the highest levels of digital competence tend to be on courses involving ICT and are more favorable predisposed to use digital tools (Sánchez-Caballé, Gisbert-Cervera, & Esteve-Mon, 2021); and (2) most, if not all students are proficient in the use of digital technologies and have their own devices”
The paper relies on this without support.
First-semester courses in the same years provide a valid comparison to second-semester courses for isolating the effect of emergency remote teaching.
“To discard potential confounding effects, we also explored the differences across first semester courses in the past three years, all of which were delivered as face-to-face courses.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-06, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-06 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
