COVID-19 in Mexico: learning resources provided to teachers 2020

Distance learning amidst the COVID-19 pandemic entailed a challenge not only for students and parents, but also for teachers. In Mexico, teachers were confronted with the need to provide distance education since the beginning of lockdown measures in March 2020, in some cases supported by schools and government. According to an online survey carried out in the country in June of that year, the distance learning resource most commonly provided to teachers by schools was advice on how to use the strategy "Aprende en Casa I" - a tool created by the government to provide students with distance learning resources. Meanwhile, around 14 percent of teachers surveyed stated the school did not provide them with any materials or resources for distance learning.
