Abstract
The authors study satisfying students of the Engineering and Physics Faculty of High Technologies of Ulyanovsk State University with the quality of online learning during the pandemic. They have determine the criteria and indicators of satisfaction with online learning based on implementing expectations of online learning and the social and professional adaptation (SPA) of students to online conditions. The diagnostic tools included a questionnaire to identify the implementation of students’ expectations of online training in natural sciences and humanities and a methodology for its processing. According to the survey results, the derived percentage integral indicators of implementing expectations of online training in natural sciences and humanities are the following: nearly 20 % of students are completely dissatisfied with online training in both blocks of disciplines; the rest are fully satisfied (38 %) or partially satisfied (about 40 %). The level of satisfaction with online learning of students according to the criterion of their readiness for the online mode was determined using a seven-level scale of self-assessment of psychological comfort in online and offline classes of natural science and humanities blocks of disciplines. Further, the percentage distribution of respondents on seven levels of the psychological comfort scale in online and offline classes of the natural science and humanities blocks of disciplines were carried on and compared. The analysis shows that the psychological well-being of the majority of respondents (about 86 %) in online classes in natural sciences is in the scale positive area; about 70 % of them are in the maximum comfort range. A similar analysis of online classes in the humanities shows that the comfort of the majority of respondents (about 87 %) corresponds to the scale positive area. 73 % of them are in the maximum comfort range. The study results have revealed rather high level of student satisfaction with studying natural sciences and humanities online, which indicates, in general, in favor of partial online education. Based on the existing direct dependence of motivation to learn and realizing expectations of the educational process, the authors conclude about maintaining a high level of motivation to learn in an online environment.
