A Review on the Effectiveness of Distance Learning through E-platforms on Training Quality at the Technical and Vocational Training Corporation

As a result of the advancement in technology, distance learning has been made possible using platforms that employ virtual services of e-Platforms. This type of learning has also been named as E-learning where knowledge is exchanged between the student and the teacher using an electronic source of e-Platform. Distance learning has mostly been studied under the academic reference whereas the effectiveness of distance learning in corporate and vocational institutes lacks research. This limitation in research needs to be resolved in order to compliment the strategies adopted by vocational institutes to impart knowledge. The main goal of this study is therefore to address the quality of training being provided to individuals through E-platforms at the Technical and Vocational Training Corporation. The review adopts the approach of a literature review using electronic data bases such as EBSCO, JSTOR and Google Scholar. These databases collectively helped to provide relevant research papers that have formed the basic foundation of concepts including distance learning, E-platforms and Vocational Training in terms of theory. The review creates a significant understanding of how E-platforms enable distance learning to be effective in terms of training quality at the Technical and Vocational Training Corporation present in Saudi Arabia. It concludes that there might be disparity in the quality of education being provided to individuals based on a number of reasons including that of ambiguity and absence of effective infrastructure etc. In order to reduce this disparity, vocational institutes need to adopt a proactive strategy to overcome these challenges.

Literatur Review: The Effect Of Distance Learning on Students' Mathematical Problem Solving Skill

This study was intended to analyze the impact of distance learning on students' ability to solve math problems. Using the literature search method, this research was carried out by analyzing a range of types of information in qualitative and quantitative data from various texts based on previous studies. The literature exploration system uses a variety of references similar to books, exploration journals, and distance literacy operation modules that analyze students’ mathematical problem-solving skills. The results of this study validate that distance learning can affect students’ mathematical problem-solving skills when teachers use innovative methods and interactive learning media. In fact, students can develop their mathematical problem-solving skills through meaningful learning. This means that students can build their own knowledge with learning that requires independent study on the part of students so that they can construct conceptual discoveries from the material being taught. Students' mathematical problem-solving skills can also be affected by the active role played by students in distance learning. For this purpose, it is necessary for educational institutions to apply appropriate methods of learning and media that allow students to have an active role in the educational process. In addition, educational institutions must strive to provide effective and efficient communication, mentoring, and support services to students and parents.

POTENTIAL AND EFFECTIVENESS OF DISTANCE TEACHING A FOREIGN LANGUAGE

The subject of the article is reflection on the use of e-learning in language education. Based on the opportunities provided by distance learning in language education, a description of an empirical study is given, the main purpose of which was to evaluate the effectiveness and analyze the properties of distance learning in the process of teaching/learning foreign languages. The main goal of the planned study was to evaluate the effectiveness and analyze the properties of distance learning in the glottodidactic process. During the discussion, the conditions and possibilities for introducing e-learning in the context of language education at the academic level were discussed. Our own research was quantitative and qualitative in nature. The effectiveness of distance learning in editing written statements in a foreign language was assessed on the basis of statistical analysis of data obtained as a result of a training experiment. As part of the survey study, observations covered various aspects of distance learning. Based on the above considerations, it is worth emphasizing the need to continue research on the use of e-learning in the glottodidactic process within the framework of various language skills and at various levels of foreign language proficiency. Of course, organizing the process of distance learning, as well as contact learning, requires appropriate actions to individualize learning and, as a result, constant adaptation of the concept of classes conducted in a distance model to the specific educational needs of students, which can lead to a more conscious and effective use of the potential e-learning in language education. The most important results of the study are discussed later in the article.

PECULIARITIES OF DESIGNING GROUP WORK ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF SUBJECTNESS IN THE VIRTUAL LEARNING SPACE

Group work designing on the development of subjectivity in a virtual educational space is an important and relevant task for both psychology and pedagogy. Its solution and practical implementation have a substantial impact on the effectiveness of distance learning and psychological development, in particular, on the development of adult subjectivity. Subjectivity is defined as the competence of being a subject of activity, a source of influence on reality, and an intention of its transformation; accordingly, the subject of activity is characterized by such qualities as purposefulness, activity, and initiative. The degree of development of these qualities characterizes the degree of subjectivity development. Subjectivity is a targeting and competence to change reality in the broadest sense. Virtual educational spaces are learning tools as well as tools for personality and intelligence development. The design of an educational (or educational and developmental) course in a virtual educational space for the development of subjectivity, which includes group educational and psychological work (and, accordingly, group dynamics), includes such components as defining the goal of education, formulating tasks (volumes of work), training program, psychological-pedagogical scenario, student model, teacher (leader) model, capabilities of the technological educational platform, etc. Further research into the possibilities and features of designing distance educational and development courses, studying the specifics of their design on different electronic educational platforms, with different communication tools, with different content, with the presence and absence of video communication, multimedia component, "mixed" format of work, etc., is necessary.

Coronavirus pandemic has imposed significant innovations in all aspects of our lives which were a respond to precautional measures to avoid covid-19 spreading throughout the community. In many countries, Greece included, education shifted rapidly to a distanced form affecting this section of our lives as well. The present study attempts to investigate the intergration of distance education in preschool education in the future as well as the factors that promote or inhibit it, by examining the views of kindergarten teachers. By employing quantitative modes of enquiry and specifically a significant number of questionnaires we concluded that teachers argue about the effectiveness of distance learning. Specifically, in order for the educational community to start a meaningful conversation about the integration of distance education in preschool education, issues such as teachers’ technological readiness, technological equipment and parental involvement need to be addressed.

Developing and implementing a distance learning model for training specialists of the future

Modern social development requires improvement of the existing educational system, including through the implementation of innovative distance education, which has become established after the introduction of global quarantine restrictions. The purpose of the article is to propose a practically proven model of distance learning that will be useful in training the specialists of the future. Appropriate methods were used to write the article. The most important among them were the content analysis of theoretical and empirical materials, the method of generalization, and comparison. As a result of referring to the theoretical framework, a total of 27 positions of modern and relevant scientific literature were analyzed, which made it possible to provide the necessary theoretical basis for the study. The results analyze the impact of the proposed distance learning model on the educational process. The strengths and vulnerabilities of the proposed model are also identified based on empirical material. The results obtained are compared with the general trends in the organization of distance learning in the world. The conclusions note that the findings confirmed several statements about the prospects for using distance education even after the COVID-19 pandemic: the overall effectiveness of distance learning and the positive impact on students' academic achievement. The use of this learning model has led to an increase in digital competence, stimulation of students' cognitive activity, desire for independent learning, and use of digital resources.

Effects of Distance Learning on Teachers in a Rural Title 1 Elementary Education Setting

Following the sudden switch from in-person to distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic, much research has been conducted about student learning. However, little information is available about the perception of rural teachers during this time. In this qualitative study, researchers interviewed three rural Title I elementary school teachers. Through thematic qualitative analysis, researchers found that there is an intimate link between the rural community’s beliefs about education and the way the teachers perceive their roles in distance learning. The teachers in rural communities view learning and teaching as a social activity that was inhibited by the challenges faced during distance learning despite the support of the community and administration. Teachers overwhelmingly felt that the distance in distance learning inhibited the ability for them to teach and concluded that true learning happens best in an in-person setting.

Online Educational Experiences in Some Majors of Eszterházy Károly University

Abstract Introduction: In Hungary, as in many parts of the world, a crisis situation has arisen with the start of the quarantine period associated with the coronavirus, which presented the education system with a serious challenge. Social inequality (also in terms of network access and device availability) was expected due to, that differences will only increase the gap in education. Digital connectivity and the digital environment became the main arena for students and faculty over the course of a weekend. That's a real question, of course, can we talk about real digital education during this period? Was online education effective or was it rather a blind spot? Methods: In our research, we examined it from the perspective of geography teachers, kindergarten teachers, and university students attending teaching courses learning and teaching „switching online” betweem March, 2020 and April, 2021 at the Eszterházy Károly Catholic University (then even EKE). Our sample consisted of 108 people. We used an online questionnaire study to assess students' experiences with the effectiveness of distance learning and the development of their digital competence, about the possibilities of implementing professional internships. We were looking for student answers to, how each segment of distance learning can be integrated into the normal education system. We compared our results with similar Hungarian and international research results. Results: Most students felt that online education was effective. The digital competence of students has evolved. Due to changed circumstances of traineeships, students could not gain enough experience, which could later affect their work. Discussion: The changes that have occurred can be highlighted as secondary benefits, this educational environment could be more sustainable in the future, than the traditional educational environment, however, the consequences of isolation cannot be ignored. Limitations: The research shows data valid only for Hungary. Conclusions: Consideration of the experience of students for the effectiveness of their education in the coming years.

FEATURES OF THE ORGANIZATION OF BLENDED LEARNING AT TERNOPIL V. HNATIUK NATIONAL PEDAGOGICAL UNIVERSITY UNDER THE CONDITIONS OF MARTIAL LAW

The full-scale invasion of Russian troops into Ukraine prompted the Ministry of Education and Science to organize the educational process under martial law and introduce restrictions that would guarantee the safety of students and teaching staff. Universities have started the educational process in 2022–2023 in different formats, taking into account the security situation in the region, guided by the Recommendations of the Ministry of Education and Culture of Ukraine and within the limits of their autonomy. Ternopil Volodymyr Hnatyuk National University began to work in a mode that is as close as possible to the traditional format, with a flexible application of elements of blended learning.
 The purpose of the article is to characterize the peculiarities of the organization of blended learning in the conditions of martial law. The views of scientists on the definition of the term «blended learning» were analyzed and the ways of implementing the distance learning format at the university were outlined. The main focus is on the use of the educational content management system MOODLE and the overall organization of the TNPU distance learning center. A number of measures have been outlined to implement the full functioning of the educational process during the COVID-19 pandemic: development of a regulatory framework, technological support, establishing of communication with teachers and students, and improving staff qualifications.
 Based on the data received after the student questionnaire, it was established that the advantages of the distance format are: learning in a comfortable and familiar environment, the flexibility of the educational process, and the disadvantages are insufficient self-organization of students, the risk of biased assessment, the lack of necessary skills and problems with the Internet. It was determined that, in general, the effectiveness of distance learning was rated by the respondents as average. The survey results showed that the university is not only an academic environment but also performs an important social function. This justifies the importance of direct interaction between students and teachers in the classroom. Taking into account the above, we conclude that in the conditions of martial law in our region, the mixed format of learning is the most optimal. It guarantees students a safe environment, accessibility, inclusiveness, and individuality of learning.
