Abstrakt/ Abstract: Student discourse on e-learning was investigated in six separate research studies from autumn 2020 to summer 2022. Udes qualitative methods were authobiografical retrospective essay, structured interview and questionnaire with open questions. The respondents were Slovak and Czech university students. The corpus of text data was evaluated by discourse analysis. Most students find e-learning more demanding than face-to-face education in terms of concentration and fatigue. The home environment gives students distraction and the computer is a multitasking medium. E-learning does not sufficiently support interactive communication with feedback between teachers and students, but it is also not a sufficient platform for effective communication between students. Direct interpersonal communication is important for building informal student relationships that support a creative atmosphere in the student group. Most respondents prefer face-to-face education, but with the advantages of online technologies, e.g. in case of illness or for dissemination of study materials.
