Summary/Abstract: The appearance of COVID-19 has brought humanity to true heights of despair, as Emil Cioran had launched the idea almost a century ago. The explosion of cases of disease worldwide has led authorities everywhere to institute unique measures, unprecedented so far, decisions that we have all hardly accepted. The school, regardless of its level of education,has not escaped these measures. Thus, starting with March 2020, education, worldwide, has periodically oscillated between real-world activities in the classroom, when the situation allowed it and, unfortunately, in most cases, courses held with the help of e-learning platforms in the virtual world. What were and still are the challenges? How have teachers adapted and are adapting to this system of work? What were and still are the dangers? Here are just a few of the many questions we are trying to answer in this text.
