About the project

The aim of the project is to collect information about the readiness of educators (teachers and student teachers) for online teaching and what opportunities and challenges educators relate to online teaching. We are also concerned about the inclusion of vulnerable learners in online practices during the Covid-19 crisis. Our research question is: “Are teachers ready to transition to online learning in ways that include all learners?”
