I honestly declare that I am not in any allied relationship with the author of this Master's thesis.
The author dedicated the thesis to the topic connected to the COVID-19 pandemic, the mental health of students studying remotely, and in the isolation. This topic opens a wide opportunity for any researcher.
The topic related to objective of the research were described well in the theoretical part, sometimes in much detail (pandemic and its history).
The research was realized as the ethnographic exploration. The methodology is described well. Visualization of research questions is appreciated. The outcomes from the research are well structured and summarized, and bring conclusions about improvement of mental health of students in contrary with the literature review.
The thesis corresponds in its content and form to the requirements for this type of final thesis at the Prague University of Economics and Business. I recommend to defend the thesis.
Question: Based on your findings, what are the implications for universities/educators to improve the learning process while teaching online?
