Аннотация

This paper maintains that the management of the pandemic, which relied mainly on digital tools, can become effective when it covers many sectors. Digital technologies enabled us to contain the epidemic on an administrative level and a health care level. Homeschooling is also possible with the help of digital tools and it contributed significantly to the control of COVID-19 spread. Digital technologies can also relieve the mental health problems that are caused or that are aggravated by the lockdown. Psychological support can be provided online even through social media. Neuroeducation had always been an effective approach to teaching. Nowadays, neuropedagogy is even more necessary in order to address the problems that arise because of the excessive use of digital tools in the learning process.
