应对COVID-19大流行:印度的物理教学
Response to the COVID-19 Pandemic: Physics Teaching in India
摘要:
当印度的学术机构于二零二零年三月因COVID-19疫情而突然关闭时,正规教育转移到网上。由于印度农村和城市之间存在巨大的数字鸿沟,而且不同机构的数字资源分配不均,这一过渡产生了非常不均衡的影响。基于社会经济因素和性别,每个人获得资源的机会差别很大。在这一关键时期,对学术界的机构支持基本上不足,这对物理学和其他需要实验室指导的学科的教学产生了严重后果。教育机构还为女学生提供安全和有利的学习空间;由于设备、数据和时间等资源稀缺,利用这些设施的机会减少,破坏了妇女与工作和学习有关的动力。本文件报告在COVID-19疫情期间为了解该等挑战所作的努力,并描述为应对该等挑战所采取的步骤。
英文摘要:
When academic institutions in India closed abruptly in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, formal education moved online. This transition had a very uneven impact given the significant digital divide between rural and urban India and the unequal distribution of digital resources in different institutions. Access to resources varied substantially by individual, based on socioeconomic factors as well as gender. Institutional support to the academic community during this critical period was largely inadequate, which has had serious consequences on the teaching of physics and other subjects that require laboratory instruction. Educational institutions also provide safe and enabling learning spaces for women students; reduced access to such facilities undermined the work- and study-related dynamics for women because of the scarcity of resources such as devices, data, and time. This paper reports on efforts made towards understanding such challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic and describes steps that were taken to address them.
