“…La transición afectó profundamente la forma de enseñanza y aprendizaje: por un lado, evidenció las carencias digitales de muchos docentes, y por otro supuso una oportunidad para enriquecer su experiencia y capacitarlos en estas materias (Navarro et al, 2021;Peytcheva & Aleksieva, 2021;Marchisio et al, 2022;Singh & Meena, 2022). Los estudiantes fueron quienes mostraron mayor facilidad para adaptarse a la modalidad virtual, gracias a su mejor manejo de las tecnologías, excepto en regiones donde carecían de los equipos tecnológicos necesarios; esto mostró algunas brechas digitales (Choi et al, 2020;El Kayaly et al, 2020;Supriyatno & Kurniawan, 2020;Chávez et al, 2021;Hassan & Abdullahi, 2021;Malik et al, 2021;Villafuerte, 2021;Dindar et al, 2022;Domínguez et al, 2022;Yuan et al, 2022;Zhang, 2022). Por otro lado, las plataformas digitales como Zoom o Webex resultaron atractivas para los usuarios, aunque se reportó cierta retroalimentación negativa por parte de ellos (Zou et al, 2020;Parra & Granda, 2021).…”

En la actualidad, modalidades novedosas como la enseñanza híbrida representan herramientas importantes para garantizar la continuidad de las actividades académicas dentro de la educación superior. La presente revisión sistemática buscó analizar el impacto de la pandemia por COVID-19 sobre la educación superior, y el rol de la educación híbrida superior como una alternativa de solución para las actividades académicas en tiempos de nueva normalidad. Para ello, esta búsqueda se centró en recopilar información reciente sobre trabajos que estudiaran los cambios generados en el ámbito educativo propiciados por el COVID-19, con miras a una época de pospandemia. Los resultados dejaron en evidencia el reto que supuso lidiar con la pandemia dentro del ámbito educativo, así como la evolución que este campo ha sufrido en los últimos años. Aunque la educación híbrida representa una alternativa novedosa para ejercer las actividades educativas dentro de la nueva normalidad, todavía debe pasar por su respectivo proceso de mejora, del mismo modo en que ocurrió con la educación a distancia en su momento.

“…In a study by Hassan and Abdullahi [24] they found that instructors because having low degree of content, their delivery online with flexibility applications weakened the process of teaching and learning. Therefore they conclude that instructors lacked adequate knowledge on basic ICT knowledge and skills with a very high level of barrier of adaptation on online learning and teaching tools.…”

In response to the Covid-19 outbreak the world closed and therefore countries like Somalia have not been exceptional. The government of Somalia and all higher education institutions adopted crisis intervention measures on implementation of blended learning approaches like online teaching and learning. In this chapter we explore the process and challenges of adopting online learning in response to the world wide lockdown due to the pandemic. Given that this was an abrupt requirement, the survey was interested in finding out whether universities adopted and adapted easily. Researchers compared findings from previous studies and theoretical inclinations on online learning. Results indicate that the adoption of online learning among universities in Garowe was as a matter of crisis management whereby administration, lecturers and students were all not ready and had no prior grounding in this pedagogical learning platform. Just like previous studies online learning implementers have continued to encounter several challenges like intermittent internet network, cost of gadgets and facilities, inadequate skills of both the instructors and students, aspects of communication and satisfaction from stakeholders. With the research survey in Garowe, results show that this is still pervading and therefore need for more rigorous contextualised research on this subject.
