In these unfamiliar circumstances, there was uncertainty and disparity between what to teach, how to teach, where to teach, how to assess and grade, the workload of lecturers and students, the teaching environment, and the implications for education equity [4]. The University faced several challenges under the newly introduced online policies included: the weakness of the e-learning infrastructure, the lack of lecturers’ experiences in conducting online classes, the complex environment at lecturers’ and students’ homes, and so forth
