Online Education in Postmodernism between Benefits and Drawbacks.
New technologies have transformed society in recent decades, positioning it in a constantly changing environment. Both positive and negative influences, accelerated especially in the context of the pandemic generated by the COVID-19 virus, have been felt even in academia, found quite reluctant to align itself with the trend proposed by the new technological tendencies. This article aims to capture some of the benefits and drawbacks of online learning in postmodernism, and to outline some solutions that could be relevant to remedy the problems encountered, as well as some proposals for improving the teaching-learning-assessment process.
