Selected Aspects of Distant Online Education of Study Programmes Economics and Management

Abstract

We have been encountering the distance form of distance learning practically since the 18th century, and its significance lies in the fact that teaching takes place at a distance through various communication channels. We moved to distance online learning to a large extent in early 2020, when the SARS-Cov-2 coronavirus pandemic broke out. This form of teaching has affected virtually all levels of education not only in the Slovak Republic but also around the world. In our article we deal with how distance online teaching affected the two most numerous study programmes at the Faculty of Economics and Management of the Slovak University of Agriculture in Nitra at the bachelor's and engineering level through a questionnaire survey in May 2021, when only online distance learning was taught. Students already had experience with online teaching and senior students could compare the full-time and distance form of education.
