Abstract:
Faced with the restrictions imposed by the Covid-19 pandemic, universities, as
providers of higher education, have been forced to provide their students exclusively
through a digital interface. For this, the institutions were challenged to select resources
and platforms to support online education. The World Health Organization (WHO)
advocates for research focusing on the impact and prediction of post-Covid evolution on
education, in order to obtain adequate explanations for these challenges. The Technical
University of Moldova (UTM) is the only technical higher education institution in the
Republic of Moldova. TUM invests continuously in information technology infrastructure,
as well as in the digital education of both students and academics. The aim of the study is
to evaluate the university potential, from the perspective of digital technologies, in
providing now, but also in the future, e-Learning. The most dominant form of providing
learning content to TUM, during the pandemic, was online lectures via real-time video
conferencing, which is confirmed by the continuous increase in the number of active
MTeams users. And e-Learning did not negatively influence students' learning. The
obtained results show that TUM has demonstrated its potential to ensure the continuity
and good development of the teaching process during the pandemic, maintaining the good
quality of studies.
