Due to the COVID19 pandemic, traditional face-to-face learning was replaced by distance education, e-learning, online learning and blended learning at all education levels, including adult education. Learning Management Systems (LMS) are crucial in organising an efficient pedagogical process online and ensuring
that learners attain learning outcomes. The current research, conducted in six EU countries – Croatia, Latvia, Slovenia, Romania, Poland, and Czechia, evaluates the suitability of the LMS to non-formal and informal adult learning for various target groups when face-to-face adult education was restricted. The research involved 638 participants, 209 of them were learners with barriers to learning. The participants studied the blended learning course created for non-formal and informal adult learning and filled in a feedback questionnaire after its acquisition. The results indicate overall learner satisfaction with the LMS and the course delivery, and the suitability of the LMS for regular adult learners and learners with cultural, social, and geographic barriers to learning both for non-formal and informal learning. The LMS is suitable for learners with economic obstacles for non-formal learning. However, learners with learning difficulties require special pedagogical approaches to support them to acquire the course in an online-only blended learning format.

Learning Strategies Applied by University Students in Distance Learning

Lucie Zormanova

Мова: EN | Дата публікації: 22-06-2021 | Анотація | стор. 1-20

This review study aims to provide an overview of previous research on learning strategies used by students studying in a distance-learning form. The basic sources for research were the Web of Science, Research, Gate and Google Scholar databases. We also proceeded with a subsequent search based on frequent citations, using the Internet search engine Google.
In accordance with the aim of this study, we sought answers to the following research questions in the analysis:
1. Which learning strategies are most frequently used by students studying in a distance-learning form?
2. In connection with which factors influencing distance-learning outcomes are learning strategies examined?
3. Which research methods are used to study distance-learning strategies?
We came to the following conclusions: In distance learning, it is necessary to help students develop their autonomous learning competence, knowledge of diverse learning strategies and reflective use of learning strategies, and increase the repertoire of reading strategies used by students. For some distance-learning students, however, the use of diverse learning strategies poses an issue; adult distance-learning students use only a fairly limited repertoire of learning strategies. Adult students use only those learning strategies which have worked for them in the past and are therefore convinced of their effectiveness. The most frequently used learning strategies for distance-learning students are retelling the text in their own words, with which students check whether they have understood the text sufficiently, compilation of an overview of information based on the read text, and the use of mnemonics.
In connection with the factors influencing distance-learning outcomes, research has shown that there is a relationship between the degree of cognitive development and the use of a broader repertoire of learning strategies. It was found that the effectiveness of learning in self-directed learning and the use of a wider repertoire of learning strategies are closely related to students’ mood, selfconfidence, self-assurance, and perseverance. In this study of learning strategies, quantitative and qualitative research methods are applied. However, mixed method research design is the most commonly used approach.

Procrastination in Blended Learning The Role of General Self-efficacy, and Active and Passive Procrastination

Elżbieta Sanecka

Мова: PL | Дата публікації: 01-02-2019 | Анотація | стор. 49-65

Despite the growing empirical interest in academic procrastination in the distance learning, there are only limited studies on the determinants of this phenomenon in the blended learning programmes. The present study investigates the relationships between general self-efficacy, two types of procrastination (active and passive procrastination), and the behavioural tendency to postpone learning activities in a blended learning university course using Moodle platform. Results indicate that passive procrastination is strongly positively associated with procrastination in blended learning, while perceived self-efficacy and active procrastination are unrelated to the self-reported task delays during the blended learning course. In addition, the negative link between the reported number of previous completed blended-learning courses and procrastination in blended learning is observed. Practical and theoretical implications of these findings for a blended learning environment are discussed.

Integrating E-learning for Administrative Staff Professional Development

An Inside View from Moroccan Higher Education Institutions

Layla Ajrouh , Karima Slamti

Мова: EN | Дата публікації: 29-12-2020 | Анотація | стор. 1-16

Online learning is increasingly solicited around the world within and across several sectors. It also involves higher education (HE), as it operates in a global, unstable environment, where communication and information technology are the fundamental keys. This study seeks to examine the Moroccan employees’ perception of this innovative way of learning and its impact on their professional development. It also aims at investigating the presence of distance learning as an approach growing in popularity within the administration of Moroccan universities. This qualitative study uses a semi-structured interview with 76 employees in seven Moroccan Higher Education Institutions (HEIs). The results reveal that the majority of participants have rarely used online learning, in spite of their willingness and insistence on its positive impact on their professional progress. The interviewees reported their proactive view to accelerate the implementation of digital learning to meet the world standards, as it would also serve as an appropriate way for their continuous professional development and their ability to face critical situations. The present research shows the significant necessity of integrating new ways of learning in Higher Education Administrations (HEAs). The present work assumes the research hypothesis H1: e-learning is not promoted for employees’ career advancement in Moroccan HEAs. This study recommends an anticipatory vision to transgress any reticence to change, since online learning approach would bring more productivity and success for the administrations and the employees themselves, as well as closer institutional alignment with the revolutionary digital world.

Distance Learning in Polish Schools During the Coronavirus Lockdown: the Areas of Success and Failure Experienced by Polish Teachers of English as a FL

Marzena Wysocka-Narewska

Мова: EN | Дата публікації: 31-12-2021 | Анотація | стор. 1-15

Based on Roblyer & Edwards (2000: 192), distance learning means “the acquisition of knowledge and skills through mediated information and instruction, encompassing all technologies and other forms of learning at a distance.” The instructional delivery includes an instructor who is physically located in a different place from the learner, as well as possibly providing instruction at disparate times. More specifically, the instructor controls the instructional sequencing and pacing and all learners participate in the same learning activities. The aim of the paper is to show the advantages and disadvantages of distance schooling during the Covid-19 lockdown, the emphasis being placed upon among others, the teacher – student relationship, the equipment conditions required for running an English lesson and working online, as well as some “food for thought” in the form of necessary changes and modifications to be introduced, which have been suggested by the sample in question. The respondents constitute 9 teachers from secondary schools, who have replied to an online questionnaire investigating the situation in Polish schools, concerning distance education, specifically teaching a FL. Apart from presenting the current state of affairs, some suggestions for the future are remarked upon.

Perception of Information Security in the Process of Distance Learning During the COVID-19 Pandemic on the Example of University Teachers’ Experiences

Agnieszka Kubacka , Daniel Biały , Radosław Gołąb

Мова: EN | Дата публікації: 31-12-2021 | Анотація | стор. 1-18

The COVID-19 pandemic has greatly affected every area of our lives. One of them was education, which had to undergo a huge transformation in a very short time. Overnight, the computer replaced the blackboard and became the only tool of communication between a student and a teacher. Teachers had to completely change the tools used in the teaching process and enter a completely new and, for many of them completely unknown, working environment. Online learning has replaced traditional teaching. A computer with Internet access has become a basic work tool for people who have so far used it mainly for recreational purposes. Teachers were thrown in at the deep end, for most of themit was the first time they had encountered platforms for remote communication.
As the workspace has changed, learners and teachers have begun to move much more frequently into the world of the Internet, which harbors many dangers of which quite a few people were previously unaware. For this reason, the authors decided to investigate the problem of information security in e-learning. This paper attempts to collect the experiences and assess the awareness of university teachers about information security threats while teaching during the COVID-19 pandemic. The research results presented in this paper showed that the level of awareness of the risks, that may affect academic teachers in the distance learning process, is very low. Additionally, no appropriate procedures for safe distance learning have been developed. The communication security area was practically completely overlooked during the COVID-19 educational  revolution.

Dmitry Guzhelya , Victoria Kurilenko , Yulia Biryukova

Мова: PL | Дата публікації: 01-02-2019 | Анотація | стор. 5-19

The article presents the analysis of distant technologies that are utilized by the world methodological society: a set of distance technologies (desktop videoconferencing, e-mail, voicemail, online chat, web-based resources, e-learning platforms), synchronous/asynchronous technologies, m-learning/e-learning technologies. These technologies were analysed from scientific positions concerning their typology, essential characteristics, and linguistic and methodological potential.

The authors of the article also provide distance technologies that can be used when teaching Russian language as foreign for medical purposes: synchronous technologies, professional websites, e-learning platforms, e-mails, mobile applications.

The verification of distant technologies’ usage is conducted experimentally. The obtained results show that distance learning is useful and should be used in teaching foreign languages for other levels and professional purposes.

Not only does the success of distance educational courses depend on the distance technologies that are provided by a teacher, but also we should rely on the consistent and integrated efforts of students, faculty, facilitators, support staff, and administrators.

Мова: PL | Дата публікації: 01-02-2019 | Анотація | стор. 21-33

This article is first of all a theoretical study covering the whole area of critical thinking. The development of critical thinking should be supported by new information technologies. The text only points to some possibilities of using information technologies in the concept of building learning power and critical thinking.

The development of information technologies gives us new tools and forms to support the teaching/learning processes. Many of the new tools of digital technology pose new teaching challenges for the teacher. However, there appears a question that is not only worth asking, but also worth answering: how to improve the teaching/learning process with the help of the new educational opportunities, so as to strengthen it and not to disturb it at the same time? A tutor-teacher has to search and to find out – in the area of these educational opportunities that belong to him or her and his or her pupils – such optimal solutions that neatly combine both the elements of traditional teaching and the ones that are typical of distance learning. This gives new opportunities for effective online tutoring when the teacher is available online for any of the students at a specific time that is perfectly convenient for each of them.

Мова: EN | Дата публікації: 31-12-2021 | Анотація | стор. 1-21

The article presents the research results on the socio-emotional context of distance learning from teachers’s perspective. The primary purpose of this study was to explore teachers’ experiences in primary, secondary, and vocational schools as they converted their classes to distance learning, and in a broader perspective, indicate difficulties resulting from the mediation of personal contacts.
The main research question was: What are teachers’ opinions related to relationships and their well-being connected with conducting remote classes? Based on the results of a diagnostic survey conducted in primary, secondary, and vocational schools in Silesia, Poland, it can be concluded that the well-being of teachers has worsened due to the need to stay at home and prolonged social isolation. The teachers also pointed to the deterioration of relationships with students and the loosening of ties in the classroom. The article ends with recommendations for improvements in distance learning.

Measuring Student Involvement When Taking Tests in E-learning Courses

Krzysztof Dziedzic

Мова: EN | Дата публікації: 29-06-2021 | Анотація | стор. 1-17

The ongoing SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has significantly affected the education process of young people in primary, secondary, and tertiary education, as well as those who improve their competences through various courses and trainings. The practically incessant lockdown in education has resulted in a situation in which distance learning, which most often plays a supplementary role, now constitutes the basic form of education. This situation has forced the selection and adaptation of the available e-learning tools to the types of classes and levels of education. Despite great progress in the development of e-learning technologies, constant stimulation and maintenance of students’ interest in the content presented and monitoring their activity still pose a problem, which also concerns the education of computer science students in issues related to computer graphics. Currently, the preferred model of distance learning is based on various technologies and IT tools that enable the implementation of synchronous and asynchronous work. Prompt
acquisition of data on students’ activity allows trainers to adjust the form and content of the presented material to their expectations. It also makes it possible to identify issues that pose great difficulties to students. This paper discusses modern solutions and trends in designing e-learning courses based on the new interactive e-learning platform Quizer. The aim of the research is to determine the course effectiveness using the user activity-monitoring module designed and implemented for the Quizer e-learning platform. The correctness of the answers correlates with the number of attempts to answer it (−0.65). The time devoted to a given question was usually high for questions with low correctness of answers.

Teachers in Distance Education During the COVID-19 Pandemic. Context of Mainstream, Inclusive and Special Education

Edyta M. Nieduziak

Мова: EN | Дата публікації: 15-06-2022 | Анотація | стор. 1-35

The aim of the article is to present the results of research on distance education conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic in the Silesian Voivodeship (Poland). The research focuses on the work of teachers in mainstream schools and those who work with students with special educational needs. The author presents: the difficulties indicated by teachers, the support they experience and the solutions they apply, especially to students with special educational needs. 
The study was based on a quantitative paradigm, using a diagnostic survey method and online survey questionnaires, sent to respondents in the LimeServey system. 958 teachers representing primary and secondary schools participated in the study.
The teachers indicated the difficulties of distance learning, such as the inability to monitor the progress of students, problems with the organization of group activities and the use of activating methods in teaching. They found the support in interpersonal contacts and self-study work; they rarely used the help of specialists. Half of the respondents worked with students with special educational needs. The largest group of such students were those with specific learning difficulties. Students with disabilities accounted for about 36% of those students identified by teachers. The teachers working with students with special educational needs experienced technical problems on the part of the student and psychophysical problems resulting from the specific condition of the student with special educational needs.
The results of the research and the recommendations were presented to the school authorities in order to improve the quality of distance education and raise the standards of teachers.

The subject matter and the priorities of the conference reflect the conceptual principles underlying the modernisation of education and the reform of the edu-cational systems in European countries, as well as national development strategies for the 21st century. One of the European Union’s key educational objectives is the provision of equal opportunities for all with respect to an access to learning and knowledge, regardless of gender, financial and physical ability, and place of residence. Consequently, distance learning has now been granted a status of high priority. If introduced on a wide scale, distance learning and teaching may make a significant contribution towards the achievement of educational goals in member states.

Предполагалось, что дистанционное сотрудничество развивает у студентов социальные компетенции, а также положительно влияет на достижение познавательных целей обучения и развитие умений и навыков. В исследовании приняли участие 655 студентов очной и заочной формы обучения, принявших участие в 22 курсах дистанционного и смешанного обучения, проводимых по двум направлениям обучения, на первой и второй ступенях, очной и заочной, во время и после COVID-19. пандемии, то есть в 2020/2021 и 2021/2022 учебных годах. Был проведен инструментальный кейсстади: сравнивались оценки, полученные студентами за индивидуальную работу и выполненную в парах и тройках. Статистических различий не было, но несколько более высокие оценки (83,81%) были получены у студентов, работавших индивидуально, и более низкие оценки (81,64%) в парах. Наиболее талантливые студенты не рисковали сотрудничеством и не желали тратить время на дистанционное общение с менее амбициозными сверстниками, а наименее вовлеченные рассчитывали на снижение усилий, групповую поддержку и распыление ответственности. Самые высокие оценки получили студенты последних курсов, которые лучше всего поняли критерии оценивания и придерживались их, так как хотели сдать диссертацию с первой попытки, чтобы успеть написать и защитить диссертацию. Иностранные студенты, которые хотели хороших оценок и своевременного завершения курсов, не желали сотрудничать из-за короткого периода пребывания в Польше и напряженности, вызванной войной на Украине. Самые низкие оценки (70%) получили
первокурсники, которые не знали друг друга, еще не набрались практики в соблюдении критериев оценки и имели проблемы с общением из-за изоляции во время пандемии. Студенты, которые ранее были друзьями, работали наиболее эффективно. В самых больших группах обычно лучше всего удавалась работа в парах, но из-за склонности наиболее способных к самостоятельной работе самые высокие статистически высокие оценки были получены за индивидуальную работу.

Мова: EN | Дата публікації: 04-06-2022 | Анотація | стор. 1-22

The article compares the results of the research conducted at the end of the winter semester 2019/2020 with the results from March 2021 as an extended teaching for the validity of extending the teaching offer for modern language studies by including innovative solutions using distance learning methods and techniques, with additional comments at the end of 2021. The opinions of 50 second-year students on the usefulness and effectiveness of IT innovations in lectures, seminars and practical language learning exercises were surveyed. The research showed that the pandemic situation verified students’ perceptions of the advantages and disadvantages of remote working. The data are also commented on by lecturers. It turns out that in all three types of classes, the opinions of students and staff range from moderately neutral at the beginning of 2020 towards teaching innovations, through more sceptical in March 2021 after the large-scale introduction of e-learning, to more favourable towards online innovations after a year of experience gained in 2021. Despite this general trend, there are considerable differences in the opinions of students and lecturers depending on the nature of the classes.

Мова: EN | Дата публікації: 29-12-2020 | Анотація | стор. 1-20

This work demonstrates that the use of laboratories for the development of curricular work in the area of information technology exclusively supported by cloud computing technology does not decrease the level of learning and assessment objects on the part of students. This scenario arose from the need to interrupt face-to-face classes in physical laboratories due to the COVID-19 Pandemic.

MDB jako efektywna platforma komunikacji między uczniami a nauczycielami: studium z Uniwersytetu Wirtualnego w Pakistanie

Nadia Saleem , Aisha M Din , Saba Sadiq , Masroor Ahmed

Мова: PL | Дата публікації: 01-02-2021 | Анотація | стор. 61-75

Integracja nauczania na odległość oraz technologii komunikacyjnych i informacyjnych stała sięźródłem wielu udogodnień dla uczniów, którzy wcześniej doświadczali problemów z edukacjąz powodu ograniczeń czasowych lub geograficznych. Ponieważ e-learning jest pojęciem nowym i odmiennym, dyskurs dotyczący metodologii nauczania i relacji uczeń-nauczyciel w środowisku e-learningowym wprowadził wiele nowych elementów wartych omówienia i rozważenia. W syste-mie wirtualnym powiązanie komunikacyjne miedzy uczniem a nauczycielem nie jest tak mocne jak w systemie klasycznym. Uczniowie muszą polegać na jednostronnej komunikacji w postaci nagra-nych wykładów, publikowanych ogłoszeń lub informacji zamieszczanych w sieci. Redukowanie luki komunikacyjnej między uczniem a nauczycielem za pomocą MDB (platformy zarządzania dyskusją) jest efektywnym krokiem w zakresie edukacji online podjętym przez Uniwersytet Wirtualny w Paki-stanie. Prezentowane w artykule badania miały na celu zbadanie efektywności MDB jako platformy interakcji między uczniami a instruktorami na Uniwersytecie Wirtualnym w Pakistanie. EfektywnośćMDB mierzono za pomocą analizy liczby MDB wysłanych w ramach danego kursu oraz rodzaju pytań zadawanych za pośrednictwem MDB przez studentów. Przeprowadzono badanie ilościowe, w którym wybrano poprzez losowanie celowe dwa przedmioty z kursu Komunikacji Masowej. Dane zebrano i poddano analizie procentowej, a także zastosowano statystyczny test korelacji, aby stwierdzić, czy istnieje zależność między liczbą uczniów a pytaniami zadawanymi poprzez MDB. Stwierdzono, że chociaż liczba MDB jest niższa od liczby uczniów, którzy zapisali się na kurs, to jednak MDB stanowi efektywną platformę komunikacji między uczniem a nauczycielem. Dzieje się tak, ponieważ uczniowie mogą zadawać pytania odnoszące się do przedmiotu, egzaminów, aktyw-ności w semestrze oraz spraw ogólnych.

Мова: EN | Дата публікації: 29-06-2020 | Анотація | стор. 1-18

This paper presents the results of a research study on the motives of students to study in the distance learning form at the University of Humanities and Economics in Lodz. The research was carried out using the method of semistructured interviews. The interviews were conducted among students of the first year of the follow-up Master’s degree in Pedagogy. The research was carried out in the years 2016–2019, in this period three stages of research were realised. The research group consisted of 20 students who had work and family responsibilities and were between 35 and 48 years old. In addition, respondents already had previous experience in combined and full-time studies. The interviews were recorded on a mobile phone and lasted about 40 minutes each. Data were analysed using open coding procedures. The goal of open coding was to thematically divide the analysed text. The analysed interviews were divided into units, which sometimes meant words, and sometimes sentences or paragraphs set according to their meaning, so the unit consisted of a semantic unit. A code has been assigned to each specified unit. Once the code list was created, we started to categorise data.
