THE SUMMIT
by SIMO EDUCACIÓN

7 - 8 April 2021

Virtual Special Edition
Learning after a crisis

Leading experts will analyse the pros and cons derived from virtual, blended, hybrid education...; the doubts and concerns faced by teachers due to the pandemic; the problems teachers are encountering in online vs face-to-face education....

Key questions will be addressed such as:

• Do all pedagogies work for online education?
• Are teachers prepared for the challenge of hybrid or virtual education?
• Is there a lack of training for this scenario?
• Is there an exhaustion of the online model?
• Has this crisis served to highlight the importance of face-to-face education more than ever?
• How can education with a strong virtual component be evaluated?

Organised by IFEMA and in collaboration with EDUCACIÓN 3.0 

Home confinement and the closure of educational centres during the first months of the pandemic meant the implementation of a totally online education from one day to the next. This situation brought to light the weaknesses and shortcomings of a sector which, although it had been committed to the digitalisation of its centres for years, realised that it was still a long way from having an infrastructure that would allow it to cope satisfactorily with situations such as the one we experienced.

With the return to school came the need to maintain hybrid or blended education in order to reduce classroom ratios. To make this possible, many schools began to equip themselves with the necessary infrastructure: cameras in the classrooms so that teachers could communicate with students who stayed at home, improved their connections, acquired computer equipment, contracted or expanded management and communication platform services with families... Families, for their part, have had to make an extra effort to provide their children with the necessary devices and connectivity for their homes; an effort that has also highlighted the digital divide that exists between families.

What have we learned from this whole process? Should the centres and the Administration have been better prepared to face the digitalisation of education with guarantees? Is this digitalisation here to stay? Will we return to a total presence once we overcome the pandemic and this equipment will no longer be used? What is the minimum infrastructure that the centres and families must have for a real digitalisation of education and to make the most of what they have acquired?

We will talk about all these issues and many more with experts, representatives of technology firms and teachers at the SUMMIT by SIMO EDUCACIÓN round table.

Organised by IFEMA and in collaboration with EDUCACIÓN 3.0.
