Podcast – Education Nowadays ’ New Projects

During the recent COVID-19 pandemic, many aspects of our lives changed due to the lockdown; one of the several areas that suffered the most was education. Schools had been conceived as a place for studying in site, but this crisis gave a new shape to giving education. As education carries out an everlasting evolution, it is about to change forever. Education will have changed by the end of the pandemic, but not to be completely dependent on virtual courses. Specialists say: “it may never be the same, but it is not a sufficient reason to change it all online or onsite, we need to be flexible on that. Hybrid classes are here to stay”. So, being physically present at school is necessary for many subjects, it is true that the definition of being present in the school facilities has been acquiring different meanings. Distances and contents haven’t been worrying students or teachers because classes can also be taken this way, and this is a major benefit, too. Even many school contents will have evolved in the near future, due to this change. As hybrid education reaches a higher point nowadays, schools should ask themselves about how they have been adapting to this way of teaching classes. It will be very interesting to see these changes happening at the moment.
