COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF DISTANCE LEARNING STUDENTS OF DENTAL FACULTY FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF STUDENTS AND TEACHERS
Distance learning and education have become firmly established in the life of higher education during the pandemic, creating many reasons for discussion. A lot of theory, a decrease in the level of communication, and a lack of practical training played an important role in the training of dentists. Analysis of the results of the questionnaire survey of 91 students and 21 teachers of the Faculty of Dentistry of USMU showed that students are better adapted to the distance format than teachers. For studying at the Faculty of Dentistry, online lectures and face-to-face practical classes have been successful. The effectiveness of learning can be increased by providing students and teachers with free access to the maximum number of educational resources, improving the level of technical equipment and the quality of Internet access. The ethics of distance learning is of great importance, in particular, the regulation of the interaction between the teacher and the student.
