Abstract
One year has passed since the world declared a state of a pandemic caused by COVID-19. The main objective was to limit the number of people in public places to mitigate the spread of the virus. The Serbian government also decided to suspend teaching in higher education institutions, secondary and primary schools, and the regular operation of preschool education institutions. The habitats of all the inhabitants of the world have completely changed in all spheres of life. Offices and classrooms have moved into family homes and the question now arises as to how much digitization has made it easier or harder to complete everyday responsibilities. However, they all had to come to terms with the fact and adapt in a possible way to the current situation. Teachers and parents faced a difficult challenge, but perhaps the most difficult was for pupils and students, among whom many have not had direct contact with their professors for a year and they master most of the material on their own. The aim of the research in this paper was to determine how much the way of conducting online teaching in Serbia has changed, compared to last year. An attempt was made to determine whether more positive or negative grades were given by students for the approach and manner of teaching in high schools and faculties.
Highlights
When we talk about education, educational processes, or successes in educational activities, we usually mean the formal context of education, which is realized in colleges or universities. [1] It only took a couple of weeks for COVID-19 to change the way of learning in educational institutions around the world
After the research “What do the Youth Think About Online Teaching?” at the end of the school year 2019-2020 the results were compared to the first semester of the school year 2020-2021
The aim was to compare if students were satisfied with the quality of work if there was any progress with teaching methods, and how they feel about not going to school regularly for over a year
Summary
When we talk about education, educational processes, or successes in educational activities, we usually mean the formal context of education, which is realized in colleges or universities. [1] It only took a couple of weeks for COVID-19 to change the way of learning in educational institutions around the world. The use of digital devices and various communication channels in learning led to the fact that communication between teachers and students has reached a higher level. This contact has a decisive influence on the satisfaction of students and on their activity in classes, which decreases due to alienation and social distance between them. The advantages of e-learning for students are flexible time, place and duration of learning, availability of education, the possibility of unlimited repetition of lectures, multimedia environment (audio, video, text...) It seems that the Internet is the most perfect instrument of education: it is very practical, and has immeasurable potential for expanding and deepening knowledge. Chatbots are available 24 hours a day and can help students in answering their questions instead of professors, no matter the time of day or night. [15]
