The research focuses on identifying the way in which Romanian universities managed to provide knowledge during the Coronavirus pandemic, when, in a very short time, universities had to adapt the educational process for exclusively online teaching and learning. In this regard, we analyzed students’ perception regarding online learning, their capacity to assimilate information, and the use of E-learning platforms. An online survey based on a semi-structured questionnaire was conducted. Data was collected from 762 students from two of the largest Romanian universities. The results of the research revealed that higher education institutions in Romania were not prepared for exclusively online learning. Thus, the advantages of online learning identified in other studies seem to diminish in value, while disadvantages become more prominent. The hierarchy of problems that arise in online learning changes in the context of the crisis caused by the pandemic. Technical issues are the most important, followed by teachers’ lack of technical skills and their teaching style improperly adapted to the online environment. However, the last place was assigned by students to the lack of interaction with teachers or poor communication with them. Based on these findings, research implications for universities and researchers are discussed.

With the coming of the digital age over a period of the last three decades, the letter “e” is used to refer to the electronic world. Formerly known as computer-based training, e-learning has also come of age and is increasingly oriented to real-time learning, that is, activities facilitating simultaneous interaction between learners and instructors. Further, the knowledge explosion makes it more a necessity than a luxury even for emerging economies to consider the e-learning platforms and adopt e-learning strategies. The objectives of this chapter are to understand the essentials of effective e-learning strategies and identify the barriers and facilitators in embedding e-learning for emerging economies so as to align well in this knowledge era. The methodology adopted is in depth literature review and grounded theory approach. Contextual analysis and is restricted to effectiveness of e-learning from an emerging economy point of view.

The paper reflects on the issue of the educational process, in which it is necessary to apply such teaching methods that will arouse students' interest in learning and acquiring new knowledge. The principles of communication in teaching Slovak as a foreign language should also be placed in the given context aiming to develop students' communication competence. The paper also seeks to justify that, while teaching Slovak as a foreign language, the balance of the individual components (language – communication – culture) needs to be ensured, while the latter is not always given due attention. This unfavourable phenomenon can be eliminated by (out-of)school activities through project teaching, which encourages students to actively participate in the teaching process and enriches their knowledge of culture.

Prior to the COVID 19 pandemic, discussions about online learning referred to the use of e-learning platforms and social networks as auxiliary tools in the educational process. Due to the pandemic, universities were forced to adopt an exclusive online teaching process and most universities today use platforms dedicated to online learning such as Moodle platforms. In this context, we were interested in analyzing the attitude of students regarding the way social networks could be integrated into the educational process, and if the positive attitude of students towards social networks and their use for academic purposes, proven in previous studies, remains positive under the conditions generated by the pandemic. In this regard, the present study aimed at identifying the attitude of Romanian students towards the use of Facebook and Instagram as educational tools and the circumstances in which students believe these platforms could be used by them and their teachers. An online survey was conducted on 872 students from public higher education institutions in Romania. Based on the exploratory factor analysis and the parametric test, the empirical results show that students have a slightly positive attitude towards using Facebook in the educational process, but they have a more reticent, less positive attitude towards using Instagram. Thus, the most appropriate contexts in which these platforms could be used are represented by extracurricular activities. A higher preference for the use of Facebook rather than Instagram, was identified among master and PhD students. No major differences were revealed in student subgroups sorted by gender or study domain.

AbstractThe picture storybooks have gone through a major transformation since their modern versions appeared in the 1950si. Modern and postmodern picture story books “have a great potential with their flexibility, based on a great variety of picture-text interplay, a wide range of themes, richness of aims and functions” (Bobulová, et al., 2003, p. 88-89). In the online distance learning course, education will be carried out on the basis of interaction between the learner and material (stored and exchanged in Moodle Platform, for instance), and between other participants in the educational process, that is, the instructor and other learners. The advantage of teaching children’s literature, especially picture story books, via E-learning platforms, is twofold: firstly, readers take their time to go through the reading materials and work on their own; secondly, it gives them space and time to prepare for the task assigned by the instructor appropriately and effectively by paying close attention to all the details, which, due to shortage of time allocated in face-to-face education (classroom environment) would be impossible. This paper presents not only advantages of such learning, but also sample tasks learners may encounter while participating in the online distance learning.

Introduction: Information Technology (IT) has influenced all fields including healthcare and Medical Education (ME). The present generation of students have grown up in an IT enriched atmosphere and are comfortable with most IT tools and gadgets. Aim: To understand the perception of first year MBBS students regarding role of IT in ME. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional, questionnaire based study was carried out on 250 first year MBBS students from August 1st, 2019 to August 31st, 2019 over a period of one month. A questionnaire containing three sections was administered to the students before the starting of IT module in foundation year. The responses to the items of the questionnaire were assessed on the basis of the student responses on the likert scale. Results: The study revealed that students acknowledged the utility of IT for academic purposes and were primed for its inclusion as an essential component of the medical curriculum. The students conceded to browsing internet on their computers and smartphones for social media handles. However, when it came to teaching methods, students were not comfortable with the idea of replacing traditional teaching methods with e-learning. Also, students were more comfortable in reading hard copies instead of e-books. Conclusion: It was concluded that there is a need to amalgamate the traditional teaching methods with the innovative e-learning platforms in such a way that they become mutually inclusive and facilitate the learning process. Also, ME practices need to be continuously re-evaluated to make the educational process more effective for learners, teachers and for the society in general.
