THE ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES OF DISTANCE TEACHING AND LEARNING FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SECONDARY SCHOOL PUPILS

Abstract

As time goes on, the number of studies on evaluation of teaching and learning during teaching restrictions has been increasing. However, identifying the benefits and risks of distance education is important, as teaching activities may be restricted in the future or hybrid for of teaching can be used in the future. Therefore, we present results of a survey among 162 secondary school pupils conducted in March 2022, which indicates that the respondents would choose a hybrid form of education, even though they evaluate distance education rather negatively, see it as a reason for tutoring, and prefer classical form of teaching to distance education. The results are compared with the results of other studies. The influence of connectivism and the increasing number of pupils referred to as digital natives is also recognized.
