Understanding Students in Higher Education in the Post-Pandemic Era

The post-pandemic area in higher education contains uncertainties and opportunities. The collection entitled “Understanding Students in Higher Education in the Post-Pandemic Era” gives educators and scholars the opportunity to examine, through different methodologies and perspectives, the complexities of the academic performance, retention, and attrition of students in higher education. The collection will feature articles about current and innovative theoretical constructs and methodologies. Perspectives may be either local or international. Of interest will be empirical or review articles and commentaries that illustrate the contribution of individual differences and sociocultural factors within and outside the classroom to students’ performance, retention, and attrition in the higher education of the post-pandemic era. Articles that illustrate predicted trends will also be welcomed.
