What is Distance Learning and Why Is It So Important?
1 Distance learning – any form of remote education where the student is not physically present for
the lesson – is booming thanks to the power of the Internet. In fact, there are a number of
advantages of learning remotely over even traditional teaching models. As the Internet blurs the
line between near and far, distance learning is set to disrupt the current paradigm of education.
2 Historically, distance learning described correspondence courses in which students would
communicate with their schools or teachers by mail. More recently, distance education has
moved online to include a huge range of systems and methods on practically any connected
device.
3 Distance education is clearly different from regular education in terms of a student or teacher‘s
physical presence. For the most part, it translates into increased freedom for both learners and
educators, but it also requires higher degrees of discipline and planning to successfully complete
the course of study.
4 The enhanced freedom of remote learning is most clearly seen in the fact that students can
choose courses that fit their schedules and resources. (Teachers can do the same.) And in the
case of digital learning, students can also choose the location and teaching styles that best suit
their needs.
5 Remote education is certainly not a magic bullet and there will always be a place for in-class
learning. At the same time, distance learning still has a lot of untapped potential to reach students
where they are and connect educators and learners in new ways. From increased flexibility to
new learning styles, it seems that the future of learning will be as diverse in time and place as it
will be in thought.

The phenomenon E-democracy [electronic democracy]
is well known and well used in Sweden. E-democracy is a
solution that makes it easier for the population to vote or to
participate in different questions, or just to make themselves
heard. E-democracy is used a lot of municipalities as a simple
way for the inhabitants to participate in the local debate.
E-democracy is often argued as a tool that makes participation
more available for everyone.

As long as it operated as a cheap factory, China’s growth
was welcomed by the US, and its emergence as a new market
for consumer goods was eagerly anticipated. However, in
the mid-2010s the relationship between the rising nation
and the incumbent superpower became more competitive.
With the election in 2016 of Donald Trump on an “America
First” platform, the gloves came off. Unhappy with the trade
imbalance, the US president kicked off a trade war in 2018.
The fallout for companies has been considerable.

Three-quarters of the world’s children live in countries
where classrooms are closed. As lockdowns ease, schools
should be among the first places to reopen. Children seem
to be less likely than adults to catch covid-19. And the costs
of closure are staggering: in the lost productivity of home
schooling parents; and, far more important, in the damage
done to children by lost learning. The costs fall most heavily
on the youngest, who among other things miss out on
picking up social and emotional skills; and on the less welloff, who are less likely to attend online lessons and who may
be missing meals as well as classes. West African children
whose schools were closed during the Ebola epidemic in
2014 are still paying the price.

Education for Sustainable Development
Projects from Botswana, Brazil and Germany win UNESCO-Japan
prize on Education for Sustainable Development.
With a world population of 7 billion people and limited
natural resources, we, as individuals and societies, need to
learn to live together sustainably. We need to take action
responsibly based on the understanding that what we do
today can have implications on the lives of people and the
planet in future. Education for Sustainable Development
empowers people to change the way they think and work
towards a sustainable future.
UNESCO aims to improve access to quality education on
sustainable development at all levels and in all social contexts,
to transform society by reorienting education and help people
develop knowledge, skills, values and behaviours needed for
sustainable development. It is about including sustainable
development issues, such as climate change and biodiversity
into teaching and learning. Individuals are encouraged to be
responsible actors who resolve challenges, respect cultural
diversity and contribute to creating a more sustainable world.

No livro Sapiens: A brief history of humankind, do autor Yuval Noah Harari, há o seguinte trecho:
Like it or not, we are members of a large and particularly noisy family called the great apes. Our closest living relatives include chimpanzees, gorillas and orangutans. The chimpanzees are the closest. Just 6 million years ago, a single female ape had two daughters. One became the ancestor of all chimpanzees, the other is our own grandmother.
(Sapiens: A brief history of humankind, 2014.)
Em trecho anterior, o autor indica que o surgimento de organismos vivos data de 3,8 bilhões de anos atrás. Comparada a essa informação anterior, a expressão “Just 6 million years ago”, presente no trecho transcrito, justifica-se por indicar que a origem da espécie humana é ____________ , pois corresponde a __________ do período do surgimento dos organismos vivos.

The business of climate change
A UN assessment published this week on the progress made in stemming the global loss of species made depressing reading. Not one of the 20 targets adopted by 196 countries in a convention on biodiversity in 2010 has been met. And the latest biennial Living Planet Report from the WWF, an environmental group, found that animal populations worldwide shrank by an average of two-thirds between 1970 and 2016. The falls were greatest in the tropics. In Latin America and the Caribbean animal populations fell by 94%, on average, during the period. It is some comfort that around the world biodiversity and climate change have become big political issues. In Australia koala bears have almost brought down a state government.
