Abstract

The article deals with the study process of students participating in vocational adult education. Students enrolled in evening vocational lines may either attend classes of study some parts of their courses at home applying distance education. The study process of the two groups seemed to differ in some regards. Students seemed to benefit from distance education; the effects of study obstacles and worries concerning one's abilities as student were less important to adaptation to study.
