Question

2. Is modular distance learning helpful for the pupils to
avoid contamination of virus?​

Answer 1

Emergency Remote Education and Distance Education cannot be understood as synonyms, so it is very important, in the context we are living in, to clarify these concepts. The term “remote” means distant in space and refers to a geographical distance. Teaching is considered remote because teachers and students are prevented by decree from attending educational institutions to prevent the spread of the virus. It is an emergency because overnight the pedagogical planning for the 2020 academic year had to be shelved.

It was necessary to think about pedagogical activities mediated by the use of the internet, punctual and applicable due to the restrictions imposed by the covid-19 in order to minimize the impacts on learning arising from face-to-face teaching. The curriculum of most educational institutions was not designed to be trained remotely.
