Abstract:
Education around the world has been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. The affected institutions who were not prepared for the arrival of such a pandemic were also universities. These universities were forced to teach online on a day-to-day basis. This move to online was challenging not only for teachers but also for students. The aim of the presented article is to evaluate the satisfaction with online teaching and the use of technology at a selected university in the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The data was obtained by quantitative research using a questionnaire among respondents (n = 306). The data was collected in 2020 among full-time bachelor’s and master’s degree students at selected university in the Czech Republic. The results demonstrate that 71% of the respondents are satisfied with various aspects of online teaching. More than 80% of respondents use a laptop for online teaching. Over 85% of respondents use WIFI connections and the most used platform for online learning is MSTeams (more than 95% of respondents).
