A Study on Students' Self-discipline in Online Courses at Universities of Vietnam

ABSTRACT

The Covid-19 pandemic has threatened the health safety of people around the world. It has deprived the lives of thousands of people around the world. In Vietnam, the pandemic started out at the end of 2019 and broke out strongly in the following two years. In response to the pandemic, the Vietnamese Government implemented social distancing and required all students to study online at home. Since then, universities have been working hard to organize online courses for students in the best way. However, it seems to be more effective only if the students are self-disciplined and active in learning. The study was carried out with the aim of finding out the reasons why students do not do well in online learning and solutions to promote their self-discipline. © 2022 ACM.
