It is not news to any of us that COVID-19 it really came to bring the future into the present, to readjust development pointers and to requalify the essential values of life. Along this path, even education, which is essential for the formation of a dignified and just society, has been put to the test, so much so that some countries have shown themselves to be incapacitated with regard to distance learning.
Many approaches have been raised since the paralysis of face-to-face education in Angola, during the first State of Emergency decree, on March 25, 2020. From that date, educational institutions have been creating isolated alternatives for the maintenance of such a noble mission, using some technological tools (essentially social networks). Until, through joint executive decree No. 201/20, July 09, all private education institutions were prohibited from charging fees, based on the “distance learning” model, including higher education institutions that have the model regulated by Presidential Decree 59/20, of 03 March.
In order to eliminate doubts, discuss the challenges and alternatives, on Thursday, August 06, 2020, from 17:00 (Angola time) the Webinar with the theme: DISTANCE TEACHING IN ANGOLA with the following speakers:
