Abstract

This paper aims to review the literature related to the experience of students and teachers in Higher Education in times of the COVID-19 pandemic. A Systematic Literature Review was conducted using the scientific databases Scopus and Web of Science, following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, structured in three stages of the experience: Pre-Core, Core and Post-Core. The results provided by the 105 studies selected for the review are heterogeneous and diverse in terms of the positive and negative factors and elements of the Higher Education Experience in the global health crisis. The method with the highest presence in the selected studies was quantitative with 51.4% and its main instrument was the questionnaire. Likewise, social interaction in the context of Higher Education is one of the most negatively impacted dimensions of the transition to distance education, with important implications for the mental health of students and teachers.
