GRANADOS-MONTERO, María del Milagro. COVID-19: Threat or ally in the teaching-learning process in phytopathology?. Rev. mex. fitopatol [online]. 2021, vol.39, n.spe, pp.426-431.  Epub Nov 30, 2022. ISSN 2007-8080.  https://doi.org/10.18781/r.mex.fit.2021-5.

Preventive confinement against COVID-19 changed the teaching-learning process of the Phytopathology course at the Faculty of Agronomy of the UCR. Information and Communications Technologies (ICT) were integrated into a program called ‘Phytopathology 2020, at the distance but together’. Each student received at her home a box of materials, including culture media and a paper microscope, that allowed her to set up and carry out different phytopathological techniques. The result obtained exceeded expectations and previous results in 16 years of teaching experience. The integration of the family into the educational project was surprising, fostering values of mutual commitment in education and prevention of COVID-19.

Keywords : COVID-19; ICT; Phytopathological; teaching-learning; virus.
