Distance Education in the COVID-19 era: The example of Greece and the international opportunity to transition to the Open School of Inquiry Based Learning, Collaborative Creativity, and Social Solidarity
Abstract
Η επέλαση του νέου κορωνοϊού Covid-19 και οι επιπτώσεις της πανδημίας σε διεθνές επίπεδο διαμορφώνουν ένα πρωτόγνωρο σκηνικό για τους πολίτες αλλά και τις οργανωμένες κοινωνίες. Τα εκπαιδευτικά συστήματα σε διεθνές επίπεδο καλούνται να σηκώσουν σε ελάχιστο χρόνο την ευθύνη της μετάβασης σε ένα νέο περιβάλλον υποστήριξης της μάθησης στο σπίτι σε κατάσταση εκτάκτου ανάγκης.
Η εργασία διαρθρώνεται σε δυο κύρια επίπεδα, Στο πρώτο επίπεδο το ενδιαφέρον εστιάζεται σε μια πρώτη καταγραφή των ενεργειών με βάση τις οποίες τα εκπαιδευτικά συστήματα τόσο διεθνώς όσο και στην Ελλάδα επιχειρούν να αντιμετωπίσουν τις επιπτώσεις της πανδημίας. Στο δεύτερο επίπεδο διατυπώνεται ο ισχυρισμός ότι το νέο εκπαιδευτικό περιβάλλον που αναδύεται δεν θα πρέπει να περιοριστεί στον υποστηρικτικό του ρόλο στο πλαίσιο των εκτάκτων συνθηκών που βιώνουμε, αλλά οφείλει να προετοιμάσει την μετάβαση στο Ανοιχτό Σχολείο της Διερευνητικής Μάθησης, της Συνεργατικής Δημιουργικότητας και της Κοινωνικής Αλληλεγγύης. Ένα σχέδιο 3 φάσεων προτείνεται προς αυτή την κατεύθυνσή.
