The challenging educational scenario with Covid-19: active methodologies and digital technologies in debate

Abstract

The pandemic caused by Covid-19 strongly affected the educational model that was used thus far, changing known paradigms of the teaching-learning process. The changes range from the use of tools, methodologies centered on the figure of the teacher to the physical space where the process takes place. This disruptive outlook has led to this article, which aims to analyze the changes that have occurred in education, highlighting the role of active methodologies and the use of digital technologies in this new scenario, while contextualizing it with the socioeconomic conditions that impact the way of making education. Therefore, there is a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory research, with secondary sources, of bibliographic and documentary origin. Therefore, we seek to discuss the possible solutions for teaching-learning considering the impacts and available resources, including the Finnish educational model as an example, pointing out alternatives with efficient use of DITC’s and active methodologies in order to reduce socio-educational gaps.
