Innovative response
In just a few days, the National Agency for Education (RISE) in Sweden, in collaboration with 3 other organisations, have compiled support for schools on distance education on a new website, skolahemma.se.
Skolahemma.se offers a unified place where school staff can turn to for further information on government information, educational material and support for distance learning with digital teaching materials. There are also simpler checklists on the schoolahemma.se to help prepare and organize for a changed business.
Specific issues addressed and anticipated impact
Schools have closed, so teaching has become more difficult due to the challenges and lack of knowledge for remote learning. This innovation, implemented at great speed, is attempting to address that.
