Sažetak

During the academic year of 2020/21, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, universities were forced to make certain decisions about different types of classes and their nature. Depending on the ability of the university to ensure a safe environment, classes were held in person, or online. While most types of classes are easily transferred to an online environment, engineering laboratory sessions are not. This paper discusses the approach taken by the lecturers of the course „Fundamentals of electrical engineering” in professional study of electrical engineering at the Zagreb University of Applied Sciences, where students were able to choose between online and in-person laboratory sessions. The paper examines student choices and their gradual shift towards online sessions during the subsequent increase in cases in Croatia and following a series of earthquakes that hit Zagreb and the surrounding area at the time.
