Abstract:
The authors present research focusing on the issue of technical education in the context of distance education. It deals with the development of psychomotor skills of students in a vocational subject during distance education. The research aimed to verify the impact of the designed distance education program on developing and enhancing students' skills in the subject of robotics. The sample consisted of 10 students. A pedagogical experiment was used as the research method. The findings show statistically significant changes in the students' skills in the posttest compared to the pretest. It was mirrored in higher values of the skill posttest results. The designed distance education program helped develop students' manual skills. The research results emphasize the importance of personal interaction and support in technical education. The paper was created as a part of the grant project VEGA No. 1/0550/22 Current state, trends, and problems in technical education at the lower and upper secondary education level concerning distance education.
