“…En ese sentido, la desigualdad social y educativa, durante esta pandemia, se reproduce y amplía a partir del capital cultural de las familias (Tarabini, 2020;Dietrich, Patzina y Lerche, 2021), y más aún en los hogares monoparentales (Cabrera, Pérez y Santana, 2020). Además, las familias han declarado tener un bajo nivel de conocimiento de enseñanza virtual, ya que vinculan el uso de tecnologías principalmente con el ocio y el divertimento (Hortigüela-Alcalá, et al, 2020); y a esto se le suma, que ahora los padres perciben que tienen la responsabilidad principal de que sus hijos sigan aprendiendo en casa, "obligados a hacer malabarismos con sus propias luchas personales y profesionales" (Fontenelle-Tereshchuk, 2021).…”

Este artículo reflexiona acerca de las experiencias educativas del aprendizaje en casa de niñas, niños y adolescentes confinados por la pandemia COVID-19 en Chile. A partir de los datos de una encuesta en línea dirigida a madres, padres y apoderados de menores entre 4 y 18 años, aplicada durante el mes de septiembre del 2020 (N=4.912), se evaluaron las condiciones de educabilidad, sociales y de aprendizaje de los escolares y sus familias en este contexto de crisis. El análisis de este estudio amplía la definición de lo que se entiende por experiencia educativa, reconociendo que las oportunidades de aprendizaje en casa incluyen también las experiencias no formales experimentadas en la convivencia diaria y la vida cotidiana. Los resultados señalan una fuerte profundización de las desigualdades socioeconómicas, evidenciando los desafíos de equidad que aún mantiene pendientes la educación remota. En las reflexiones finales del artículo exploramos las posibilidades futuras de la “escuela pandémica”, la importancia del rol de la escuela como espacio de socialización y la fragilidad de esta experiencia vital para niñas y niños

“…This was mainly possible because their parents assumed the role of "facilitators" of learning rather than "providers" of education (Carpenter & Gann, 2015). In comparison, parents supporting their children at home during the Covid-19 pandemic, focus mostly on the academic side and often feel overwhelmed and unprepared (Fontenelle-Tereshchuk, 2021, Parczewska, 2020.…”

“…The unexpected Covid-19 pandemic triggered unparalleled changes in the educational landscape worldwide. It brought major challenges (Fontenelle-Tereshchuk, 2021, Parczewska, 2020 but perhaps also drew attention to new forms of communication and new learning tools (Bubb & Jones, 2020). The situation, caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, has one important similarity with traditional homeschooling: children were not attending school and perhaps spending more time with their parents.…”

Although still a marginalized practice, homeschooling is on the rise internationally and across socio-economic groups. Moreover, the current Covid-19 pandemic has shifted additional attention to homeschooling. However, much of the available research is primarily concerned with the current day-to-day practice of homeschooling and little attention is paid to adult homeschool graduates. This exploratory study, based on qualitative interviews with mothers and adult children from 12 families, examines young adults’ overall evaluation of their past homeschooling experience and aims to understand how parents and children view the pros and cons of homeschooling in hindsight. The data analysis revealed that homeschoolers approach education more broadly than focusing strictly on the academic side and it identified the common theme of “gifting,” which challenges the prevailing conceptualization that homeschooling is a “sacrifice.” Respondents viewed their homeschooling experience as a mutually beneficial process of giving and receiving rather than a unidirectional act of “sacrifice.”

The Covid-19 pandemic has placed the world in a public health emergency since the beginning of the year 2020, posing a challenge to education, especially to Special Education. This study aimed to analyze the situation of special education in Brazil and Canada during the Covid-19 pandemic. The research was part of a postdoctoral project in education. Methodologically, it is an international comparative study in education. It was carried out from April 2020 to November 2021, based on a literature review and official documents. The search was carried out in the Scientific Electronic Library Online (SciELO) and in the Institute of Educational Sciences (ERIC), and 233 articles were found. After analysis and following the inclusion criteria, 217 articles were excluded. In the end, 16 studies were selected. The results show that the more structured the educational system and Special Education, the greater the chances of success. In addition to returning to face-to-face classes earlier, Canada also provided more support for families and students, but it was still insufficient. In both countries, children with disabilities are in a fragile situation owing to social isolation. Aspects such as choice of tools, internet connection quality, user skills, virtual spaces for collective support, school and family communication, strengthening of special education policies and programs, adequate support, among others, led to the success of remote education. This research is intended to contribute to an increase in the number of studies in Brazil and abroad, serving as a basis for the scientific production of other international comparative studies. Keywords: Covid-19, special education, comparative study, literature review, Brazil and Canada
