Highlights
- In spring 2020, and due to the spread of the novel Coronavirus (COVID-19), many universities around the globe were forced to move from face‐to‐face to remote instruction.
- As a result, the Department of Mathematical Sciences in UAEU started implementing the use of BlackBorad Ultra as the Learning Management System (LMS) for remote instruction.
- This study investigated the effects of the transition from face to face to remote learning on students’ perceptions and achievements.
- Sixty college students enrolled in a Calculus I course participated in this study. Data were collected using two tests and a survey.
- The results indicated that students had a positive experience using the online format; most of them felt confident using it and even expressed that it allowed them more interaction than the face-to-face modality.
- Students also indicated that even though they needed to put more effort into their learning, they perceived the new approach as flexible, useful, and helpful.
