AB  - The paper focuses on students&amp;apos; perceptions of online teaching and learning amid Covid-19 lockdown&#xd;
at the University of Limpopo, South Africa. Coronavirus pandemic regulations imposed by South African government&#xd;
to curb the proliferation of the virus transformed the application of teaching and learning at tertiary&#xd;
institutions. In South Africa, some institutions had to grapple with migrating their contact teaching programme&#xd;
to a new online phenomenon. Students were also expected to swiftly adopt to the new teaching and learning&#xd;
approach. The study employed qualitative approach through focus group interviews. Thus, students were&#xd;
engaged pertaining to their experiences of online teaching and learning during lockdown period due to Covid-&#xd;
19 pandemic. The analysis of the qualitative data was carried through reflexive thematic analysis. The study&#xd;
employed six steps of thematic analysis. Therefore, the study revealed that online teaching and learning had&#xd;
both positive and negative impacts on the students. A number of challenges were raised i.e. poor connectivity,&#xd;
lecturers&amp;apos; unpreparedness, and lack of devices. However, some students indicated that new system has&#xd;
advantages such as recording of the lectures for revision purposes. In the light of this, we recommend an&#xd;
implementation of online teaching and learning policy at the institutions of higher learning.&#xd;
