Threat or Opportunity?

       In light of the current situation in Lebanon, an important question can arise which is whether we consider the learning trends that have emerged due to Covid-19 a threat or an opportunity to the Lebanese Educational System?

       Actually, we all know that the whole world is passing through the Covid-19 pandemic that forces the teachers and schools to update the teaching-learning approach. In other words, Covid 19 pandemic has drastically changed the way we teach and learn. So, the learning trends that have emerged due to this pandemic give us an opportunity to put new modifications that can be beneficial to improve the actual Lebanese Educational System. Accordingly, our mindset and our way of thinking, of exploring things with students and of teaching skills to students is different. So, they give us a chance to rethink of what we are doing in education. Also, they provide us with new strategies in teaching, and so students learn more about technology.  Moreover, they give us an opportunity to focus on the transversal skills and to do professional development of teachers.
