The Covid-19 pandemic had profound impacts on higher education. In Portugal, it affected around 350000 students, involved in an emergency transition to remote teaching practices. We consider it essential to identify practices adopted by higher education institutions in this context, as well as how they have been readjusted over time, and how the process was perceived, both by teachers and students. To this end, an online questionnaire was applied to teachers and students of on-campus higher education between April 22 and May 12, 2020. The results point to the adoption of a plurality of teaching strategies, with emphasis on synchronous practices, which have been revised throughout the process. Despite sensitive aspects such as evaluation, student involvement, practical activities or time management, potential and limitations to the process are recognized.
