During the COVID-19 pandemic distance learning was implemented in Italy, as well as in other countries, to allow students to continue to have classes even when schools were closed. Different dispensatory methods were used to help the students adapt to these new learning methods. This graph shows that teachers tended to give fewer tasks to children with ADHD, as well as additional time. This graph shows the percentage of children in Italy with different dispensatory measures during COVID-19 distance learning based on ADHD diagnosis as of 2020.
