PERSPECTIVES ON THE MANDATORY CURRICULAR INTERNSHIP IN DISTANCE EDUCATION IN PANDEMIC TIMES

Abstract

This experience report presents the experiences experienced during the completion of the Second Degree in Pedagogy carried out in the distance learning modality, in a private teaching institution, during the pandemic period in 2021. Concerns the training process dedicated to the Mandatory Curricular Internship, its relevance to the teacher's training process and the relationship between theory and practice in the midst of the global pandemic context that required readjustments and adjustments in the course constitutions. Throughout the text, we highlight the legal bases on which this stage of the supervised internship is based, the specificities in the context of offering the distance modality and the applicability of the training requirements necessary for students in the midst of the pandemic period. Finally, it is concluded that the possible losses caused by the absence of face­to­face academic practices are a gap in academic training that needs strategies to be overcome in pedagogical and teaching practice.
