Paiva, Ana Maria Videira; Runa, Ana; Seco, Carlos; Mendes, Elizabeth; Pereira, Hugo; Paz, João; Morgado, Lina; Vieira, Márcia de Freitas; Cardoso, PaulaThis communication presents an ongoing research on the perceptions and practices experienced in Portuguese Higher Education Institutions, during the recent period of social confinement determined by the Portuguese Government, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The main objective was to understand how Higher Education faculty and students experienced the digital transition to emergency education and the pedagogical practices adopted during that period. The research was based on a mixed methods approach. In order to address the research objectives and describe the pedagogical practices implemented, specific instruments were developed for data collection, namely: a questionnaire aimed at students and interviews aimed at both students and faculty. These cover technological and pedagogical dimensions, as well as the assessment of the experience. The data collection took place at the end of the semester of the school year 2019-2020, with the participation of students and faculty from eight Higher Education Institutions (four Universities and four Polytechnic Institutes). The research results are currently under analysis.

Cardoso, Paula; Morgado, Lina; Paz, João; Mendes, Elizabete; Loureiro, Ana; Messias, Inês; Oliveira, Nuno Ricardo; Runa, Ana; Pereira, Hugo; Vieira, Márcia de Freitas; Paiva, Ana; Seco, CarlosThis chapter will address results of LE@D’s project “Teaching in Times of Emergency: Digital Transition,” which focused on the experience of rapid digital transition to an “emergency teaching,” a scenario quite different from distance education. Through a mixed methods approach, data was collected through an online questionnaire applied to students and videoconference interviews conducted with both higher education faculty and students. Participants in this research are students and faculty from eight Portuguese higher education institutions, four from universities (three public and one private) and four from polytechnic insti tutes (three public and one private), covering the regions of Lisbon and Tagus Valley, Alentejo and Algarve (Central and Southern Portugal). In this chapter, the authors present a preliminary analysis of the results obtained related to the psychological aspects experienced during this period, aiming at understanding the impact this shift has had on students’ cognitive adaptation and social and emotional processes.
