Abstract

The world is going through pandemic times, and about 85% of learners are affected by the fact that educational institutions have suspended their face to face classes. However, teachers are transitioning towards online education and the current paper looks at an example of good practice in finding a unitary teaching strategy during this crisis. Our aim is to review the practices and instruments used by colleagues from the West University of Timisoara, Romania, as well as to group together some solutions to potential issues arising from the sudden changes in pedagogical approach. We would like to propose seven steps “in resetting” education in disruptive times, which can be followed for a smooth and efficient digital transformation.
