We did care about education…
Did we care about learners?

“As a matter of fact, what we teach in these times can have
secondary importance.
We have to keep in mind that students will remember not the
educational content delivered, but how they felt during these
hard times.
With an empathetic approach, the story will not center on
how to successfully deliver educational content, but it will be on
how learners narrate these times” [2]

“an event, series of events, or set of circumstances that is
experienced by an individual as physically or emotionally harmful
or threatening and that has lasting adverse effects on the in-
dividual’s functioning and physical, social, emotional, or spiritual
well-being.”

Consider yourself;
● as a learner affected from Covid19 crisis,
● As a refugee
● As a minority
● As an LGBTQ
● As a learner that doesn’t fit (so-called ideal) educational system
● As an individual in economic crisis
● As a person at the margins
● As an individual who is not understood by society
You could be / can be one of them… Act now!
