“Reimagining Smart Digital Education“
▪ In less than two months, almost the global educational community has been closed all around the
globe. Some countries and educational communities have tried, with more or less luck, to adapt to
the new scenario, through online classes, email communication or chats groups ... applying
imagination above the method. A chaotic and uncertain scenario, where nobody can give realistic
answers, provide us with tested solutions in a new transforming environment for Uncovering the
great pending dilemma of digital transformation in education and its impact on the new reality.
▪ Teachers, students and parents have been facing with a new unknown and unpredictable situation,
and just waiting for the next tsunami. No rules, no methodology, connectivity, pc´s or tablets
available for all…on-line platforms…and they, all together with public and private institutions, were
looking for solutions to implement in an equality and safety environment.
▪ In summary, a highly touched scenario and a lack of availability to face more complex challenges,
which has shown that, despite the investments of past years and the excess of literature on the
matter, we were not prepared to face this new context,
