PEREIRA-NETO, Lauro Lopes; FARIA, Ana Amália Gomes de Barros Torres  and  ALMEIDA, Leandro Silva. Academic satisfaction in the context of the pandemic of Covid-19 in students of Higher Education. Educ. Form. [online]. 2022, vol.7, e8477.  Epub Mar 25, 2023. ISSN 2448-3583.  https://doi.org/10.25053/redufor.v7.e8477.

This article presents the results of a research on the psychosocial factors that impacted the academic satisfaction of Higher Education students related to their academic performance during the Emergency Remote Learning. Through the application of the Questionnaire of Satisfaction with the Remote Academic Experience, it aimed to assess the level of academic satisfaction of a sample of 365 students enrolled in Higher Education courses at the Federal Institute of Alagoas. Academic satisfaction was directly impacted by the students' social and digital vulnerability, especially among the older students regarding satisfaction with economic resources, the perspective of future professional achievement and employability. Even without a satisfactory digital infrastructure to follow the remote activities, the majority of students were motivated to continue their studies, because they believed that only investing in their own academic training would guarantee them the upward social mobility they had so longed for.

Keywords : Higher Education; Covid-19; Emergency Remote Teaching; academic satisfaction..
