NARANJO HUERA, Vilma Lucía; CHASI MONTALUISA, Diego Fernando y MOYA CAISA, Leonel Estuardo. The teaching of graphic design in the first months of the pandemic. Transformations from the Public University in Latacunga-Ecuador. Zincografía [online]. 2023, vol.7, n.13, pp.138-160. Epub 04-Ago-2023. ISSN 2448-8437. https://doi.org/10.32870/zcr.v7i13.158.
As a result of the health emergency caused by COVID-19 that Ecuador and the world went through, education suffered a severe blow, for which the institutions involved sought alternatives to continue with their tasks in the midst of the crisis. In this context, higher education authorities were forced to take measures that involved bringing professional instruction to the virtual environment. This change was taken in different ways by the actors involved in the formation of the design. In this article we explore aspects such as the digital divide, changes in work and educational dynamics, emotional well-being and the teaching-learning process in a graphic design workshop. This inquiry was carried out through interviews, document analysis and results of the Visual Communication course of the Graphic Design career at the Technical University of Cotopaxi, during the first months of the pandemic, which correspond to the academic period May-September 2020. The findings show that teachers had to adapt unexpectedly to new teaching and communication modalities, and that students developed ways of learning, such as autonomous work with the teacher's guidance. Thus, the opportunities and limitations of an environment in which the design and its contents had to adjust to the realities of an unprecedented moment are observed.
