Abstract:

The aim of this study is to examine and present good strategies and practices for remote learning, during COVID 19. Considering that this was the only safe and secure way to keep teaching, professors had to adapt the resources the best way possible, so that students could keep learning. Schools had to set up environments for the students to understand, to practice, and apply the skills learned. Online classes were delivered, and it was difficult to control if the students achieved the knowledge needed and if the correct message was sent. In this research we present the methods used in our online classes (asynchronous or synchronous), the main worries and doubts of the instructors, as well as the solutions proposed to frame the learning process of the students. The purpose is to present the procedures and processes developed during this period, the solutions found, and the results achieved. Data were collected from the results/grades of the students and a survey was submitted to acknowledge the main concerns of the students, the positive and negative aspects of this type of learning, the main difficulties, and social issues stemming from it.

The research presented contributes to the growing Knowledge on this topic, and the findings propose a straightforward guide for the educators. Further research is endorsed to reinforce the importance of this theme and provide information to be applied to achieve better results in this domain.
