Abstract:
The present study aims to analyze and compare the attitudes of the learners about the way of teaching and assessment in higher education institutions, created after the pandemic situation that had covered the whole world. The accompanying materials used, which are necessary for learning the material during the learning process, regardless of whether they are present or online, are also classified. The way of teaching and testing, the encouragement of learners to participate fully in the educational process at all times, and the use and implementation of digital resources to help and support the learning material are also analyzed. The group of learners was surveyed at an interval of 1 year about their preferences for face-to-face or online forms of teaching, learning, and assessment of acquired knowledge, skills, and competences using the same survey, with the first survey conducted during the pandemic and the second after its completion. The results obtained from the survey were analyzed using the one-parameter model of Georg Rasch, and for even greater credibility of the conducted survey, comparability of the results of the two control questions that are present in the survey itself is provided.
Keywords – Face to face, online, one-parameter Rasch model, teaching, testing, audio-visual aids, digital learning materials, cloud resources. |
