The pandemic forced a change in the teaching of descriptive geometry, a basic subject of many engineering fields. To conduct classes during COVID-19, the following resources were used: the ELF platform, MS Teams, SketchUp, AutoCAD, email. It was decided to prepare the electronic textbook along with geometric problems to be solved, supplemented by on-line consultations with students. Despite difficulties (technological, psychological), the results obtained by students during the pandemic were very good. Although the average grade during distance learning was higher than in the case of traditional education, students reported a clear need for direct contact with the teacher.
