Aprendendo (menos) durante a pandemia

Durante a pandemia, as atividades escolares foram transferidas para o acesso remoto. Isto melhorou ou piorou o ensino? Alguns, baseados nas avaliações de alunos de EAD, afirmam que pode ter melhorado. Mas esta não parece ser a impressão de professores com quem converso (a maioria deles, pelo menos). Uma pesquisa com curso de economia, nos Estados Unidos, mostrou que o desempenho foi pior.  

We use standardized end-of-course knowledge assessments to examine student learning during the disruptions induced by the COVID-19 pandemic. Examining seven economics courses taught at four US R1 institutions, we find that students performed substantially worse, on average, in Spring 2020 when compared to Spring or Fall 2019. We find no evidence that the effect was driven by specific demographic groups. However, our results suggest that teaching methods that encourage active engagement, such as the use of small group activities and projects, played an important role in mitigating this negative effect. Our results point to methods for more effective online teaching as the pandemic continues.
