The COVID-19 pandemic forced many universities around the world to move their educational activities onto online platforms. We conducted a survey in which asking undergraduates at a Chinese university how they felt about different aspects of online education during the pandemic. We received responses from 1,088 students. A majority of the students (67.9%) thought that physical classroom is better than online education and MOOCs. The students believed that teachers have improved their ability to teach online since the pandemic (67.3%) and online teaching is a suitable option in the current situation (65.8%). The students expressed satisfaction with the online educational resources and teachers’ flexible use of online tools. However, the students felt that online education is stressful and affecting their health and social life. The pandemic has led to widespread use of online education, and we hope that online education can be better in the future.
