ANALYSIS AND EVALUATION OF THE EXPERIENCE OF DISTANCE LEARNING IN THE CONDITIONS OF THE PANDEMIC BY THE PEDAGOGICAL COMMUNITY OF UNIVERSITIES

Abstract

The article presents the results of a study conducted to analyze and evaluate the new pedagogical experience of teachers, received by them in the conditions of distance learning during the period of self-isolation in the spring of 2020. The study was carried out by the method of questionnaires. It was revealed that the majority of teachers assess this period as more difficult in comparison with the period of traditional education, but at the same time consider the experience gained as positive and useful for the future. The teachers noted that they had to master modern digital tools suitable for distance learning (video conferencing services, recording audio and video lectures, online test constructors, etc.), as well as take a fresh look at the capabilities of social networks and messengers and e-learning systems of Udmurt State University. In assessing the degree of mastering by students of educational material in conditions of distance learning, the opinions of teachers differed: most of them believe that students have mastered the material at the same level as in offline conditions or even better, but almost half (44.4 %) noted that there was a decrease in this level. The need to ensure the appropriate quality of education requires finding ways to solve problems arising in the process of distance learning.
