Attitudes and perceptions of students of the University of Split about the implementation of online teaching during the epidemic Covid-19

Pandemija COVID-19 od svoje pojave do danas svakodnevno utječe na društvo i na promjene koje se u društvu događaju. Jedna od bitnijih promjena koja se dogodila isključivo zbog pandemije je zatvaranje svih obrazovnih ustanova u Republici Hrvatskoj da bi se spriječilo širenje virusa. Svim učenicima, studentima, nastavnicima uvođenje online nastave bio je veliki izazov na koji nisu bili spremni. Ovaj rad se bavi stavovima i percepcijama studenata i studentica o provedbi online nastave za vrijeme trajanja epidemije COVID-19 u RH. Cilj je ispitati mišljenja studenata/ica na koji način oni smatraju da se online nastava može unaprijediti, postoje li stavke koje im se ne sviđaju, što smatraju prednostima i nedostacima, koji su njihovi stavovi o daljnjem školovanju online te koje razlike primjećuju između online i klasične nastave. Na temelju ovih ciljeva provedeno je anketno istraživanje na uzorku od 420 studenata Medicinskog, Filozofskog, Pravnog fakulteta i Fakulteta elektonike, strojarstva i brodogradnje (FESB) splitskog Sveučilišta. Prikupljanje podataka provodilo se online anketom tijekom lipnja 2021.godine.The COVID-19 pandemic has been affecting society on a daily basis and the changes taking place in society since its inception. One of the most important changes that occurred solely due to the pandemic is the closure of all educational institutions in Croatia to prevent the spread of the virus. For all pupils, students, teachers, the introduction of online teaching was a great challenge that they were not ready for. This paper deals with the attitudes and perceptions of students about the implementation of online teaching during the epidemic of COVID-19 in the Republic of Croatia. The aim is to examine the opinions of students on how they think that online teaching can be improved, whether there are items they do not like, what they consider advantages and disadvantages, what are their views on further education online and what differences they notice between online and traditional teaching. Based on these goals, a survey was conducted on a sample of 420 students from the Faculty of Medicine, Philosophy, Law and the Faculty of Electronics, Mechanical Engineering 65 and Naval Architecture (FESB) of the University of Split. Data collection was conducted through an online survey during June 2021
