Abstract

Distance (Learning) Didactics - DD, which had a strong impulse after the closing of schools on March 4, 2020 until the end of the school year, reopened the debate on the role of technologies in school. Recent data show that the success or failure of distance learning depends on the intertwining of several factors, including teaching and technological skills of teachers, the availability of technologies and environments, family composition and the role of evaluation in teaching and learning processes. This paper aimed to analyze the responses of Elementary School teachers to the multiple challenges raised by DD in the pandemic phase, through an online questionnaire addressed to teachers. In addition to the description and analysis of the results, the work includes an introduction to the Italian context and a final summary reflection on what was learned from that experience.
