Emergency remote teaching began suddenly and widely by March 2020 after the World Health Organization declared the coronavirus pandemics Chilean education, as many other countries around the globe, adopted the methodology of remote teaching with little no previous experience and a lack of adequate and pertinent administrator, teacher, student, and parent preparation. This chapter presents, analyzes, and discusses the Chilean higher education experiences and innovations in emergency contexts during the COVID-19 pandemic. Actual and future perspectives are discussed on the basis of education in a country with frequent emergency contexts such as earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, fires and now a pandemic. We applied a systematic review research method to the higher education data and information that emerged during the coronavirus pandemic in Chile during the last year. As a result, we ended up drawing some trends, issues, and perspectives on Chilean higher education teaching and learning activities and innovation in emergency contexts. Finally, considering the results obtained, we discuss the main themes that emerged, and some lessons learned by Chilean education in times of pandemic, in order to be better prepared and equipped to face emergency situations with less disruption and detriment to teaching and learning in the future.
