VIRTUAL EDUCATION SOCIAL RELATIONS

Virtual education is becoming increasingly popular in schools due to the closure of institutions because of the coronavirus pandemic, but this has a high cost for students as academic performance and social interaction can be impaired, at least that is what is expressed in a field study carried out by the Fundación Sueños de Escritor with young people and adolescents between 12 and 17 years old.Virtual teaching leaves as a result discontent, tiredness, and lack of motivation in students who feel cheated by the way teachers direct the classes.The lack of preparation for virtuality of both teachers and students, the lack of connectivity and computers to access the internet, are some of the difficulties, and if one adds to this the pace of work, the unproductive pedagogical practices, the tasks that are placed without the fulfillment of efficient methodologies, the panorama becomes more complex.Let us hope that the experience lived will serve to improve the quality of education and the skills in the use of new technologies for the future improvement of non-attendance education.
