The comparison of face-to-face and distance learning in 2019 and 2020 was made. This is because teaching in 2019 was carried out in a "classic ", face-to-face manner, and on the contrary, in 2020, after the closure of schools in March 2020, teaching at Matej Bel University was carried out only distance online method. To get the best possible view of the researched topic, several research methods were used: the examination of the LMS Moodle with using of various Learning Analytics tools and Questionnaire Research. The results showed that face-to-face education before the Covid pandemic and after this pandemic will no longer be the same because distance online education will also cause changes in face-to-face education in the post-pandemic period. Questionnaire research showed that up to 78% of part-time students and 61% of full-time students would like their study program to use elements of distance education in full-time study as well. Since this is a large group of students, their opinion will be considered in the future when fully returning to face-to-face teaching.
