Description
Summary:Distance learning has become a necessary element of modern education, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and Russia's military aggression against Ukraine. This process significantly changes traditional approaches to the educational process, requiring adaptation from both students and instructors. The purpose of the study is to analyze the experience of distance learning among students of the specialty «Journalism» at Ukrainian higher education institutions, particularly at the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute and Boris Grinchenko Kyiv University. A survey conducted among students enabled the evaluation of the effectiveness of distance education, the identification of its advantages and disadvantages, as well as the exploration of the role of electronic educational publications (EEP) in the learning process. The primary methodology of the research is a comprehensive approach, incorporating both theoretical and empirical methods. Specifically, a questionnaire was used to identify students' attitudes towards distance education and assess its effectiveness. The results showed that the majority of respondents consider distance learning to be effective, confirming the high level of positive assessments of this form of education among students. Moreover, respondents highlighted key advantages of distance learning, including the ability to combine studies with work and the accessibility of learning from any location. Despite the advantages, students also noted some issues with distance education, such as insufficient communication, technical difficulties, and fatigue from prolonged screen time. The study also revealed that electronic educational resources play a significant role in the learning process, with most students recognizing them as effective learning tools. The findings of the study allow for the identification of key issues related to distance learning in Ukraine and outline potential ways to improve it in the future.
