Detalhes bibliográficos
Resumo:This paper draws on data from a broader piece of research focusing on Portuguese teachers’ perceptions and experiences of remote teaching in times of COVID-19 pandemic. In total, 2,638 teachers participated in the study. Data were collected through an online survey which included both closed and open-ended questions. Findings suggest that, overall, teachers experienced a positive adaptation process and were able to teach according to what they had planned. However, difficulties were also found. These relate to reconciling work with family life and extra workload in the context of remote teaching. In addition, findings show that pupils from lower socioeconomic backgrounds present a lower level of participation in learning tasks. Differences as a function of gender and age were identified. Implications of the findings are discussed.
