Educational transformations in pandemic times: From social confinement to curriculum isolation

Abstract

Education today faces a series of challenges, resulting from the crisis caused by the pandemic COVID-19. The change in the way teachers work is a good example, because of the social confinement that this crisis has generated, and in the context of an emergency, classroom teaching has given space to online teaching, a modality that is accelerated in a way intense in the transition to the digital society or the predominance of digital subjectivity. It is, therefore, about this paradigm shift, as well as about the role of digital technologies in carrying out distance learning activities and their reflexes in curricular terms that we ponder in this text. In this reflection, we do not neglect the influence that the digitalization of relations and zoomism assume in this new way of thinking about the school, which is a “new normal”, although digital does not come to replace the pedagogical relationship, as has been intended with successive ones resources introduced at school.
