Abstract
In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, China put forward the slogan of "classes suspended but learning continues", and Chinese higher education institutions bear the burden of switching from face-to-face teaching to distance education. In the face of the sudden distance teaching, there are a lot of technical problems, students' communication problems, students' self-regulation problems and the problems of communication and feedback with teachers. The endless problems have brought great challenges to the work of distance education. Through questionnaire survey, this paper received 398 questionnaires from universities across China, divided the questions into four dimensions, classified students according to economic conditions, learning situation, gender, etc., observed the correlation between students' satisfaction with distance education and the four dimensions, found the problems and put forward corresponding suggestions for improvement.
