“…As the number of internet users increases, more and more people will be able to access e-learning platforms to take courses or complete degrees. In addition to education, the use of remote work methods [26][27][28] and tools [29][30][31][32] is also observed in different work areas. The COVID-19 pandemic had a strong impact on e-learning popularization and the change in the usage of innovative e-learning tools in university education [33].…”

The paper presents the results of the research on the advantages and disadvantages of innovative e-learning during the COVID-19 pandemic in higher education. In the first stage, an internet questionnaire was used for the study. The research was carried out in Poland on a sample of 621 students. The results allowed the researchers to determine variables that are important for the proper implementation of innovative e-learning, and the emergent perspectives for this form of education after the end of the COVID-19 pandemic. Among the most significant disadvantages, there was a lack of direct contact with colleagues, difficulties with teaching practical subjects, lack of direct contact with the teacher, and too much time spent in front of a computer/telephone or other mobile device. The most important correlations included the following: students satisfied with e-learning assess the advantages highly and the disadvantages lower; all the advantages of innovative e-learning are positively correlated with the student’s assessment of the ease of acquiring content in e-learning, and negatively correlated with the student’s assessment of the ease of acquiring content in traditional education; the easier the student assimilates innovative e-learning content, the higher the student’s evaluation of the advantages of e-learning; students who perceive e-learning content as difficult to absorb have low motivation to learn remotely; the better the student knows information technology, the more highly the student evaluates the advantages of innovative e-learning; the better resources to participate in e-learning activities the student has, the higher the student’s evaluation of the advantages of e-learning; the more often innovative e-learning solutions are used in a given university, the better the student assesses the advantages of e-learning.

“…In particular, studies that look for strengths and weaknesses, such as those related to the construction of public healthcare systems that made it possible to counteract the consequences of the pandemic effectively, have become popular. For example, studied the behavioral intentions of the population to get vaccinated and predicted the consequences of the speed of the spread of the virus [ 5 ]; looked in detail at tools that help increase the effectiveness of public health in EU countries [ 6 ]; in researchers developed road maps for possible future epidemiological threats to ensure public health at a sufficient level [ 7 ]; while investigating the problem of child mortality, identified a particular set of stabilizers in the organization of health care [ 8 ]; considered the role of mass media in covering the actual situation with the pandemic [ 9 ]; saw a relationship between the duration and severity of quarantine on the one hand, and the speed of disease spread on the other [ 10 ]; examined the degree of protection of doctors against diseases while working with patients [ 11 ]; came to the conclusion that due to the additive economy, namely the increase in production efficiency, it is possible to achieve a reduction in social risks, including in the medical field [ 12 ].…”

The article summarizes the arguments and counterarguments in the scholarly discussion about the problem of choosing a model of healthcare organization. The study’s primary goal was to identify the economic efficiency of the public health system and resistance to COVID-19. The relevance of addressing this research issue is that the epidemiological challenges posed by the pandemic worldwide have manifested themselves differently in various countries. Therefore, it is advisable to consider the effectiveness of public healthcare models and how they have worked out in the fight against COVID-19. Research in the work was carried out in the following logical sequence: conducting scientometric analysis of research, creation of a statistical research base for 22 countries of the world; construction of integral indices of the economic efficiency of the health care system; calculation of public health system resilience to the COVID-19 pandemic; application of frontier DEA analysis to determine system efficiency; comparison and analysis of the results of research on the economic efficiency of public health systems obtained by different methods. The article presents the results of a comparison of the economic efficiency of the public health system, which showed that the system built according to the Beveridge principle is the most resistant to the pandemic and, at the same time, has the highest indices of economic efficiency.

“…Popular new research domains include, for example, artificial intelligence [ 15 ], virtual reality [ 14 , 16 ], augmented reality [ 17 , 18 ], and many more. Naturally, the use of remote work methods [ 19 , 20 , 21 ] and digital tools [ 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 ] is observed not only in education, but also in different work areas.…”

The paper presents the results of the research on the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on the dissemination of innovative e-learning tools in higher education. Research was carried out in Poland in December 2021 on a sample of 621 students. The main issue that was the subject of the author’s analysis was the influence of the COVID-19 pandemic on the change in the use of innovative e-learning tools in university education. After conducting the research and discussing this and related research about e-learning during the pandemic, it was concluded that the percentage of students familiar with the analyzed e-learning tools has increased significantly during the pandemic. There has been a visible rise, especially in the usage of the following tools: MS Teams, Zoom, and Google Classroom. The most frequently used e-learning tools during the COVID-19 pandemic have been mainly videoconferencing tools such as MS Teams and Zoom. However, students also have used e-learning platforms and e-mails. The author’s research identified three hidden factors (categories) of the used e-learning tools. They include the following categories: popular services and applications adapted to e-learning; popular applications for synchronous meetings adapted to e-learning; and other synchronous and asynchronous e-learning methods. The familiarity with information technology, as well as an interest in innovative e-learning tools, have positive influence on the ease of acquiring content in e-learning. Having the proper resources also positively influences the absorption of e-learning content. On the basis of the achieved results, the authors prepared a model of relations between students’ interest in innovative e-learning technology and the resources they possess to participate in e-learning classes. This model enables us to assess which method—e-learning, traditional or hybrid—should be used in the given situation. The developed model can be useful for universities. They can assess the students’ interest in innovative e-learning technologies and their level of technical resources using questionnaires and on this basis divide students into groups to prepare the optimal learning way—e-learning, traditional or hybrid.
