| Abstract [eng] |
The learning process is considered successful when students are happy with the acquired skills and educators satisfied with the teaching quality. The opinion of students about teaching methods also plays a significant role in shaping learning outcomes. Recently, Rīga Aeronautical Institute successfully tested the online laboratory works of Physics in the computer classes and conducted a survey. Students were asked to rate the laboratory works on a 0–10 scale and explain their decision. The answers to the questions were based on the hopes and expectations of real students and shed light on the education of Physics from different perspectives. The average rating of Physics laboratory works was equal to 8.7. The lowest grade, 8, was explained as follows: “There were a few difficult parts and tasks”; “The work would be much more interesting if we could use real equipment”; and “The subject does not correlate very well with my future profession”. Meanwhile, the highest grade, 10, received the following comment: “There is no need to perform a live experiment in a laboratory because everything was clear from a recorded experimental and a separate description”. The opinions of students and their feedback were taken into account during the meeting on study methodology. After some discussion, the governing body of Rīga Aeronautical Institute decided to enlarge the teaching portfolio and to apply online teaching methods to other subjects. This action will improve the quality of special courses of the Engineering study program. |
