La encrucijada de la enseñanza en línea en tiempos de pandemia

Abstract

This article presents a brief survey of public-school teachers and the performance of two teachers who were forced to migrate from traditional to online teaching due to the pandemic and the closure of their institutions. Surprisingly, the Covid-19 forced all school levels to change their face-to-face teaching system to one based on distance learning, showing, among other things, a certain digital illiteracy in the teaching sector and serious social and economic differences in the population. Although our country's school systems showed deficiencies due to low rates of school achievement, the current pandemic evidenced such deterioration, but perhaps this misfortune forces us to question our forms and methods of teaching and to establish research groups to produce and select digital material to support teaching, in addition to implementing a real policy of teacher updating that allows our staff to use the available digital tools in a didactic way.
