Responses to the Challenges of Fast Digital Conversion, in the Light of International Research Results - A Comparative Look at Virtual Spaces

In order to assure effectiveness, digital instruction prioritizes digital devices and systems over traditional technological and methodological solutions. In the current digital age and the way of life defined by digital culture, digital skills and competences become highly appreciated. Also, innovative methodological solutions, promoting the long term maintenance of attention and motivation, become key factors in remote learning or digitally scheduled education. Furthermore, the emergence of additional digital gaps, triggers newer digital paradigm shifts, gaining special importance during such exigencies, as a pandemic. An effective response or potential remedy, to this situation, is offered by digital pedagogy. Digital pedagogy faced substantial challenges during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, imposing demanding tasks on all participants, within the education sector. Our study introduces the results of a quantitative, multivariable, empirical inquiry, entailing a comparative analysis of data obtained from a survey of the pedagogue attitudes and digital tool systems for three selected countries. © 2021, Budapest Tech Polytechnical Institution.
