Humanity has faced a coronavirus pandemic during the last year. Since the coronavirus pandemic brought changes in all areas of life, there were also changes in teaching. The education system was forced to transfer from contact teaching to distance learning. Modern teaching, which has been introduced in the Croatian school system through curricular reform, is widely represented in the implementation of distance learning. Contemporary teaching is based on constructivist and multimedia teaching. Constructivist teaching activates the individual who learns through his cognitive and physical activities. Multimedia teaching achieves the goals of education by combining several different media that complement each other in appropriate learning and teaching strategies considering the desired outcome. Regarding this situation, a survey on the opinion of students about distance learning was conducted. In the first part of the paper, the key terms for understanding this topic are theoretically presented, while the second part of the paper presents the results of research on students' opinions on distance learning. The survey was conducted online using the google docs app among 454 respondents. After processing the data, it was confirmed that there is no statistically significant difference in the opinion of students with regard to gender and place of residence. On the other hand, the research confirmed that there is a statistically significant difference in the opinion of students about distance learning with regard to the different year of study and the type of faculty. The obtained results indicate that distance learning and the approach of professors differ from faculty to faculty, but it also depends on the year of study. Since the distance learning has become more represented in the education system, it is likely that over time there will be an improvement, but also there will be the education of teachers and future teachers about organizing this type of teaching. Therefore, it is possible to expect the opposite results of future research on the topic of distance learning.
