ERT (Emergency Remote Teaching)
Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT) refers to the rapid transition to online instruction in response to an emergency, such as a natural disaster or the COVID-19 pandemic. Unlike planned online education, ERT is implemented quickly to ensure continuity of learning during disruptions. ERT involves using digital tools and platforms to deliver lessons, engage students, and assess learning outcomes. In language education, ERT presents challenges such as maintaining student engagement and addressing diverse learner needs, but it also offers opportunities for innovation and the integration of technology in teaching.
