Abstract

Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, in Serbian universities, as well as in various colleges and universities around the world there was a transition to online teaching. Such an extreme reorientation forced teachers to adjust their instruction to the new circumstances in a very short time, regardless of their previous experience and readiness. The research aimed to establish students? attitudes towards online teaching introduced by the Faculty of Philosophy in Ni? upon the outbreak of the Covid19 pandemic in Serbia and the state of emergency declared thereupon. The research included 207 Faculty students. Students? attitudes have been analysed with respect to their year of birth, average grade during the studies, sex and study programme to identify the tendencies which occur with changes in the structure of the research sample. The research data were processed in the SPSS programme, by using the parametric statistics and the F-test and t-test in the statistical analysis to establish statistically significant differences in students? attitudes in relation to independent variables. The qualitative approach was applied in the analysis of survey results obtained by means of an assessment scale, while the data were presented in tables and graphs. Research results indicate that students are satisfied with the realised online teaching and that online teaching introduced under the given circumstances was the best possible alternative to traditional teaching. They believe that teachers were successful in their response to the set requirements, as well as that the quality of realised instruction was good. In terms of statistically significant differences concerning students? attitudes in relation to independent variables, research results show that the considered variables do not represent statistically significant determinants of respondents? attitudes. The conducted research can constitute a solid base for further research.
