Abstract:
Due to the pandemic situation, distance learning took place at all universities in Slovakia for almost the entire academic year 2020/21. Similarly, the Faculty of Civil Engineering of the Technical University in Košice had to move smoothly from face-to-face to remote learning. The article describes the teaching of selected technological and economic subjects, such as Budgeting and Calculations, Construction Automation and Planning, Professional Practice, Bachelor Thesis and Diploma Thesis, which is provided by the Institute of Technology, Economics and Management in Construction. The Lifelong Learning Course, which the Institute of Technology, Economics and Management in Construction provides for the professional public, was also implemented online. The article analyzes the methodology of distance learning of various target groups of students, used ICT technologies, in contrast to the views of students on the current distance learning. The level of classification of subjects completed in full-time form and in the distance form is also compared. The functionality of the tools used for the online environment, both by the teacher and the students, was thoroughly verified. The analyzed subjects are specific and require an individual approach to the design of distance learning methodology, which is described in the results of the article.
