Abstract

Coronavirus pandemic posed a great challenge to sustainable development of educational institutions around the world. The research aims to evaluate the methodological approach to assessing positive and negative characteristics of distance education and determine its prospects in terms of its influence on adolescents’ sustainable human capital development. The qualitative characteristics of distance learning are assessed based on a narrative analysis of discursive essays written by thirteen-year-old adolescents at the end of the last academic quarter of 2020. The authors calculated the index of distance education sustainability by the parameter “quality” and compiled the rating of individual and collective trajectories in terms of frequency of mention. Overall, the methodological approach proves to be viable. Yet, the narrative analysis showed more negative rather that positive aspects of the distance education. Thus, the complete transition to distance education seems to be premature.
