The objective of this study was to collect the reflections of the virtual teaching of operations research (OR) during COVID-19, based on analysis from the university teaching practice. The method was based on an action-research cycle. The study group was made up of a sample of 30 university teachers who teach the OR subject, stratified in the Ecuadorian provinces of Bolívar, Chimborazo, Manabí, and Tungurahua. Two data collection techniques were applied, using the Zoom platform and Google Forms. The instrument was evaluated by research professors. The results show that 93.33% of university students endure problems in their training process during the health crisis. In conclusion, the study revealed profound limitations of an organizational, administrative and pedagogical nature in the implementation of virtual learning environments, and demonstrated the need for the establishment of new virtual teaching models and hybrid systems (face-to-face and distance) for teaching.
