Evaluation is of a high importance in any format that has become widely present in educational process, at any level, starting from primary school education and finishing with higher institutional one. In the paper, it has been discussed on the Kirkpatrick's model of evaluation being applied under Covid-19 conditions, the condition that has never been present in the entire world before. It has been described and discussed the evaluation process under these circumstances and what is the satisfaction level of both students and tutors in it, and also all changes occurred during this pandemic. The discussion part of the paper has been researched in its several segments, where both pros and cons have been presented, where the focus is in the virtual classroom activities since the pandemic conditions. The examined sample has included both tutors and students at a university level, where the real outcomes of this process are seen through a prism of the main hypothesis of the paper and it is to examine why the evaluation process is also of importance to be present under Covid-19 conditions. A new element has also been discussed and applied here and it is related to time experience of both students and tutors and how they have perceived it in this virtual learning environment.
Foreign language anxiety (FLA) is a type of anxiety related to all situations in which an individual is learning a foreign language. Are language teachers and learners in Serbia familiar with foreign language anxiety? If yes, to what degree? If no, why not? The problem needs to be recognized and acknowledged in order to be solved. FLA encompasses many a things, including personal traits, motivation, affect, age, the all important extroversion / introversion dichotomy, why it is happening and how, and what we can do about it, etc. In this paper, the goal is to explain the main sources and manifestations of FLA and, hopefully, raise a few questions for further discussion. If one wants to tackle the problem of FLA and try to help students overcome it, one must know where FLA comes from and how to recognize it in the classroom. This paper is not intended only for teachers, but also for students who have maybe thought about it but did not know it has a name - foreign language anxiety - and that there are ways to mitigate it.
