Sažetak
Language is an abstract system of signs manifested through the language activities of listening, speaking, reading and writing. Encouraging development of all four language skills is one of the goals of Croatian language (mother tongue) classes at the Faculty of Teacher Education in order to foster developing language skills and acquiring different strategies for improving them. Considering both the fact that the coronavirus pandemic has affected two school and academic years and caused a transition to online classes at faculties, teachers are facing the challenge of transferring knowledge to students, motivating them to actively take part and developing language skills in a virtual environment, especially the skills of active listening and speaking. Communication with students is made possible by the use of digital tools but they are less adequate for assessment and monitoring of students' progress. This is why research has been conducted, in which an online questionnaire was used, among first, second- and third-year students of the programmes for primary school and preschool teachers about their satisfaction with online classes in the Croatian language. It is expected that all students are satisfied with online classes because they are more relaxed, but also that they consider traditional classes in a physical classroom irreplaceable.
