Meanwhile, teachers have encountered barriers to digital higher education teaching. This paper identifies teachers’ barriers from studies conducted around the world using a literature review. The identified barriers to digital higher education teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic are assigned to categories to get a systematic overview. We describe these categories of barriers, show current recommendations from the literature and present an action plan which helps HEIs to overcome such barriers in the future.
