Abstract:
The coronavirus crisis affected all areas of the human activity and it did not avoid education. The education at The University of Constantin the Philosopher in Nitra changed like at other universities from attendance to distant form. Teachers as well as students had to adapt to the current situation. Information and communication technologies began to be actively used in the pedagogical process. Many teachers and also students, had to get acquainted with some information and communication technologies at first. The online education was largely new to both students and teachers, and both sides faced different problems. The aim of the paper is to describe how the teaching took place at The University of Constantin the Philosopher in Nitra. In this paper, we focus mainly on what kind of information and communication technologies have been used in education at UoCtF. The partial goals were to find out how satisfied the students were with the teaching during the coronavirus crisis and how they were affected by the environment.
