Abstract(s)
During the COVID crisis, in Portugal, all educational institutions had to close. However, there was still the need to continue and conclude the school year without resorting to the traditional classroom. The authors describe research about Portuguese schools and their need to rapidly adopt an alternative to the facetoface (traditional) learning process. For some educational institutions this transition to online learning was merely a replication of the conventional classroom (Remote Learning), while others recognized the importance of a sustained transition to Distance Learning (DL).
From the information gathered, the need to design different DL scenarios emerged, mainly due to the diversity of the target audience (from preschool to 3rd cycle of basic education teachers). Based on a simplified ADDIE model, training courses were created and carried out for the different groups using a personalized model (MIREAD).
