Description
Virtual learning, also known as distance learning has changed many parts of teaching and learning in recent years as a form of high-level "academic communication". This model of teaching as a form of academic communication has marked encouraging results in countries in transition that apply for many years. The education system continues to be a challenge these countries such as in Kosovo, and the education system is forced to apply this form of teaching after the onset of the COVID 19 pandemic in March 2020. Kosovo’s borders were closed as a result of the COVID 19 pandemic on March 13, 2020, while the UBT Higher Education Institution started teaching online on March 16, 2020, in Kosovo and even more in the regions. The purpose of the study is to more realistically reflect the organization of distance learning, the challenges, the effects on the activity of lessons and students, as well as the communication and follow-up of teachers-students and the realization of more effective curriculum now in isolation and social distance academic objectives of UBT College. The main objective of the paper was that there were instruments that we applied to learn how to influence distance learning but also the performance of students' academic staff during this period of social distance and the teaching process in this way and application for the first time in Kosovo university education.

The challenges of distanca learning on a higher education level in Kosovo – case study
UBT Kampus, Lipjan
Virtual learning, also known as distance learning has changed many parts of teaching and learning in recent years as a form of high-level "academic communication". This model of teaching as a form of academic communication has marked encouraging results in countries in transition that apply for many years. The education system continues to be a challenge these countries such as in Kosovo, and the education system is forced to apply this form of teaching after the onset of the COVID 19 pandemic in March 2020. Kosovo’s borders were closed as a result of the COVID 19 pandemic on March 13, 2020, while the UBT Higher Education Institution started teaching online on March 16, 2020, in Kosovo and even more in the regions. The purpose of the study is to more realistically reflect the organization of distance learning, the challenges, the effects on the activity of lessons and students, as well as the communication and follow-up of teachers-students and the realization of more effective curriculum now in isolation and social distance academic objectives of UBT College. The main objective of the paper was that there were instruments that we applied to learn how to influence distance learning but also the performance of students' academic staff during this period of social distance and the teaching process in this way and application for the first time in Kosovo university education.
