USE OF MICROSOFT 365 IN TEACHING ECONOMIC SUBJECTS AT SECONDARY VOCATIONAL SCHOOL

Abstract

: The paper will address the use of the Microsoft 365 cloud service in the distance learning of economic subjects at a secondary vocational school. Distance learning brings a new perspective on pupils' education to schools. Due to widespread distance education in the Czech Republic, teachers must look for ways to meet educational goals, within the available material teaching resources. Teachers thus learned to effectively use a wide range of educational software or cloud services, enabling not only commu-nication with students and their parents, but also various forms of teaching methods. Schools often use the Microsoft 365 cloud service. However, for quality teaching, it is necessary to adapt the entire teaching material that pupils and teachers work with on the Internet. It is also necessary to consider the technological equipment of all pupils. The main goal of the paper is to describe the specific practical use of Microsoft 365 cloud services in teaching economic subjects of a selected secondary vocational school. There are also specific recommendations for pedagogical practice with the Microsoft 365 cloud service, with a possible overlap of use in other vocational subjects taught at secondary vocational schools.
