| Summary: | The results of a comparative analysis have shown that the distance form of education, both in secondary schools and in higher education, ensures the continuity of the learning process. However, there is a sharp decline in academic performance and the retention of residual knowledge among students at both the secondary and higher education levels. The comparative analysis of academic performance covered the years 2019–2020, which preceded the introduction of distance learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and 2023–2024, during which a hybrid model of in-person and distance learning was implemented depending on the security situation caused by intense military actions in Ukraine. It is proposed to address the shortcomings of distance learning in higher education institutions, particularly for students in technical disciplines, by revising curricula and training programs to increase the number of hours and credits for core subjects. This would compensate for the deficits in education experienced during previous stages of distance learning. Taking into account the specific conditions of the educational process during martial law, it is suggested to supplement traditional classes in core subjects with duplicated video lectures and educational videos, which will be held on weekday evenings and at agreed times during weekends. Attendance at these additional educational consultations should be tracked but remain voluntary for students. A method for optimizing the cost of education for full-time students funded by individuals or legal entities is proposed. This method is based on the application of developed mathematical calculations, which allow for the calculation of the expenses incurred by higher education institutions for full-time students in general, and for students on a paid basis in particular. This method also takes into account the possibility of reducing the cost of education when institutions implement extended periods of distance learning. |
