Online Law? Technologies and the teaching-learning of Law in times of Covid-19

Abstract

The application of computer and communications technologies to the teaching-learning process in higher education contributes to promoting quality professional training, betting on the modernization and integration of technologies both in classrooms and in virtual environments. Regarding the Law degree, there is still a lot of work to be done to achieve an adequate education-technology symbiosis and refocus the teaching-learning method towards legal constructivism, promoting self-learning, critical and reflective thinking, linking theory and practice. The impact of Covid-19 has also been felt in this area, which is why alternatives have been implemented for the continuity of teaching, adapting the educational process to semi-attendance and the exploitation of virtual environments. The Faculty of Law of the University of Havana has faced this challenge, through the exploitation of the EVEA platform -Virtual Teaching-Learning Environment-, based on the dynamic and interactive resources that it offers for the joint construction of knowledge and the formation of future jurists.
