Abstract

Education is the main area of youth employment. It can be the main source of personal and group discontent. Analyzing the content of protest sentiments of students as their reaction to the ongoing events in the field of education, it is possible to predict and prevent protest behavior, as well as assess the quality of the educational environment. The empirical study included the collection and analysis of data obtained through questionnaires (n=608), in-depth interviews (n=12) and focus groups (n=10). The study identified the main indicators of satisfaction with the educational process of students, their attitude to distance learning, as well as problems that can provoke protest mood.
