Abstract

COVID-19 has caused thousands of educational institutes to shut down. A traditional education mode which requires students to attend lectures in classrooms had switched for a long-distance online learning mode. Students and teachers were forced to switch to an online mode. Many of them were not prepared. The aim of this study is to reveal user experience in a virtual classroom during pre-pandemic of COVID-19, through learning experience assessment. A case study was conducted at one of the top universities in Jordan during pre-pandemic period. Self-assessment evaluation was used, in which an online survey was sent out to all students (N=155) who enrolled in the computer graphics and animation program. Seventy-five percent of them (n=117) responded to the survey. The study explored five important elements of learning experience: engagement, enjoyment, memorability, the satisfaction of the technology used, and negative academic emotions such as confusion, boredom, and distraction. The obtained results indicate in spite of students satisfied with the use of virtual classroom platform, they did not enjoy learning a virtual classroom and did not perceive that they could retain what they learn. Students also highly experienced boredom and distraction in a virtual classroom. The findings in this study suggest that the willingness defines one¡¯s experience.
