Abstract

The aim of this dissertation is to identify, through bibliographic review, the challenges faced by the educational community, during the implementation of online education, due to COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the factors that contributed to the emergence of these challenges, in order, through the solutions that will be proposed, to highlight the importance of this form of education in times of crisis. Those challenges are related to the difficulties in the use of technological means and to the problems in the main functions of the educational process, such as communication between teacher and learners, e-classroom management, creating an attractive and interesting learning environment and the evaluation and feedback of learners. The factors that contributed to the creation of these barriers are: the lack of appropriate technological infrastructure both at home and in the educational units, the lack of digital skills of the trainees, the lack of initial university education and the fragmentary and non-targeted training of future teachers in ICT, the lack of appropriate digital educational materials to meet the needs of both learners and the curriculum and the fact that online education is not part of the learning culture, which reinforces the perception that this form of education can not meet the needs of the trainees. From the above findings, it emerged that in order for online education not to deviate from the perception of knowledge as a social value, an effectively organized and long-term educational planning is required, which will include: (a) the inclusion of ICT in the curriculum under in the light of a critical pedagogical concept, (b) the training of teachers in ICT and (c) the upgrading of the technological infrastructure of the educational units.
