Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected 91% of the educational institutions globally and forced educational institutions to shut down. The public health crisis has caused issues among international college students, particularly students of Chinese or Asian descent. This chapter focuses on how American colleges and universities responded to this public health crisis, when in-person classroom instruction suddenly became unavailable, forcing instructors and international college students to transition to online/remote learning. Also, the chapter discusses international college students' experience with online learning, and the challenges and opportunities instructors experienced with online teaching in turbulent times. The authors also offer recommendations on ways to improve online teaching and online learning for instructors and international college students.
