Fourthly, overall students (56. 7%) are more satisfied with online classes than academic faculty and staff (43.4%). Fifthly, the willingness to participate in online classes by faculty (89. 7%) was higher than that of students (57.8%). Sixthly, as to the online tuition, students (50.3%) claim that less than 50% of the tuition of the offline education is optimal while academic faculty and staff (23.8%) reported 90%.
