Abstract

The aim of this study to explore how academic performances of Korean college students have been affected by Covid-19 while being contained at their homes and social distancing. The data of 200 university students in South Korea who have taken non-face-to-face lectures were collected through an online questionnaire to see affect of Covid-19 in their academic performance and what are the changes in their study time and academic performances. The study found that Korean students showed poor academic performance due to lack of in person lecture and lack of self-management in online classes as they are putting off doing their assignments and listening to lectures. Result concluded that poor academic quality, such as poor interaction with professors, can significantly impact on their academic performance.
