This chapter employs a conversation analytic approach to the study of group interaction in synchronous chat. Chat has been used in educational settings as an adjunct to traditional face-to-face classes and as part of distance learning. This case study examines how chat was used for virtual team meetings by specifically focusing on the structural features of chat conversation as they relate to various aspects of online teamwork. Chat conversations are characterized by disrupted turn adjacency and multiple conversational threads, requiring participants to adapt different strategies to maintain coherence. The advantages and disadvantages of using chat for group work are discussed, and suggestions for implementing chat in education settings are presented.

The main concern of this article is the comparison of Open and Distance Learning (ODL) with the traditional, face-to-face educational approach. It aims to pinpoint the advantages and disadvantages, as well as the similarities and differences of both approaches, and answer the question of when and under what circumstances one particular method has an advantage over the other. This question makes educationalists anxious when it comes to designing a new curriculum, so in this article we consider Open and Distance Learning as a multidisciplinary evolution and part of a broader framework.

Distance learning is one of the means of education used in various levels, from primary school to college. However, distance learning in architectural education differs from other disciplines, as architectural education is design-based with predominantly applied courses. As the spring semester of the 2019/20 academic year had to continue online due to the Covid-19 pandemic and it remained uncertain whether or when face-to-face (FtF) education will start till the end of the term, the necessity to focus on online education suddenly raised in architectural faculties. This study aims to start a discussion on how to proceed with online architectural education, focusing on quality, defining the fundamentals, and proposing suggestions within this scope. In order to achieve this aim, research on the evaluation of the existing distance learning platforms of universities, the differences between the implementations of theoretical and applied courses, the advantages and disadvantages of the process are made. For this purpose, a comprehensive literature review on universities that provide fully online, hybrid and conventional (FtF) education throughout the world is conducted, given and discussed in the paper. After the research on ongoing processes, a case study to determine the experiences, opinions and approaches of students and academic staff with the scope of emergency remote teaching is designed and conducted. Together with the findings of the review and the case study, the challenges, strengths and opportunities of online architectural education are discussed and evaluated with a focus on maintaining and raising the quality of the education. In conclusion, suggestions and proposals are made and presented to be applied and developed in architecture faculties’ future online education experiences.

The Covid-19 pandemic has brought big changes in teaching and learning activities in the country. Learning activities have changed from face-to-face to online teaching and learning. Studying online changes the learning experience for many students. Rather than sitting in school and taking notes, students are taking advantage of online classes and other forms of online learning. Material and methods: Survey and interview. Interviews were conducted with the homeroom teacher. Survey of student scores in the semester before the Covid-19 pandemic and during the pandemic. Results: Based on the results obtained, on-line learning has little effect on learning achievement. Online learning has several advantages and disadvantages over learning face-to-face. Online learning offers a potentially better alternative if it is adapted to the situation and conditions of the students.

The author reflects on the specifics of distance musical and pedagogical education, which is perceived by many in a negative connotation – a reduced number of academic disciplines, first of all, individual lessons. And also – the important factor that distance education is often paid and the initial level of students is rather weak. However, there are no clear criteria for the comparative quality of full-time and part-time diplomas. Moreover, in the music profession, where individual training actualizes not only professional knowledge and skills, but also the formation of personal qualities of the future specialist. at the same time, it is necessary to separate two concepts – “correspondence” and “distance” learning. There is practically no research that would deal with the problems of distance musical and pedagogical education. As a rule, those few works that exist on correspondence training of pedagogical specialties do not take into account the specifics of the profession of music teacher, for example, in terms of the creative component of the educational process or the development of performing skills. to date, the most noticeable research gaps are, first of all, the actualization of the contextual approach and the study of the motivational component in distance learning. The author analyzes the data developed by him a detailed questionnaire for part-time students with information about the real and intended place of work of future graduates, their motivation for distance learning, the degree of satisfaction with such training, its advantages and disadvantages, the level of musical training of future teachers, musicians, their specific professional problems, etc. The students’ answers showed that there is a powerful trend in the musical and pedagogical profession associated with the public expression of musical creativity, the actualization of not only education and upbringing, but also the enlightenment component of the educational process. In addition to the performance qualities of a music teacher, those skills that have only recently seemed to be insignificant, such as organizational, directorial, lecturers, and managerial ones, have become extremely popular. According to the author, in the correspondence musical and pedagogical education it is much easier to develop the abilities of teachers in this regard, since, on the one hand, there is a knowledge base, and on the other – a specific professional situation, familiar and close to the correspondence student and teacher in one person. In this contextual paradigm laid a powerful lever of motivation of part-time students to maximize the “whole” of the educational process and, accordingly, the optimal combination and complementarity of study and professional activities.
