The Stakes of Maintaining Distance Learning in the Algerian Academic Institutions in the Post-Covid Era

Distance learning allows students to pursue a degree without having to be physically present in any institution of formal education. It became, at some point, when lockdowns were imposed, an ultimate solution to a new reality that struck the world. This solution seemed temporary as it was appropriate in the context of the Covid era, and the reasons of opting for it were indisputable. However, as now things have returned to what they used to be, distance learning should not be prioritized and promoted in the way it did during the restrictions of the movement. Therefore, this paper aims at highlighting the degradation that this mode of teaching has caused, through the reading of the specialists of the field and their findings on distance learning. Moreover, this article offers a general overview of the academic situation in the context of distance learning in Algeria.
