Online - Education and training in higher educational institutions of Ukraine: Challenges and benefits

This publication is devoted to the peculiarities of distance learning during the COVID-19 pandemic from the point of view of students of Ukrainian educational institutions. The study involved 110 participants from two educational institutions in Ukraine. In the course of the research, it turned out that the students highlighted the partial advantages of distance learning (free time for personal development and gaining new experience), as well as the disadvantages - there are no people around who admire you. They also emphasize the features of psychological comfort outside the university classrooms, but only in front of a computer monitor. © 2023 The Author(s)
