The changes brought about by the COVID19 pandemic have been significant, affecting all areas of life as we know it. The efforts to adapt are varied and important; in the case of education, these changes are more profound and complex. Historically, education has had to adapt to constant and changing demands for its very reason for being, to educate to meet the needs of the environment; today, a global environment that seeks comprehensive and skilled individuals for the world and in this way achieve a positive impact on society.
Latin America has approximately 156 million students (United Nations, 2021; ECLAC, 2020) and 68 million affected educators (Aleman Vilca, Alarcon Saravia, Monzon Alvarez & Pastor Xespe, 2021) during and post-pandemic, which widens the inequality gap for access to education. Clearly the world was not prepared for such a global health situation and the solution in the case of education was to migrate towards virtual, distance and remote face-to-face education; deteriorating interpersonal relationships (Moya et al., 2020) and the psycho-pedagogical care of the training process (Argandoña Mendoza et al., 2020).
The use of digital platforms to which not everyone had or has access and/or knowledge in their use, made things even more difficult, hindering the effective educational inclusion that must be achieved (Quintana and Vida de León, 2022), bringing varied consequences such as: increase in forced school dropout; stress, depression and anxiety; learning depends on adults at home; use of multiple digital platforms; others (Gómez-Gómez, Hijón-Neira, Santacruz-Valencia and Pérez-Marín, 2022).
