Best Practice Guide and its scenarios

Best Practice Guide: Digital and blended teaching and learning of practical skills in social and health care

About the guide

When communities worldwide were closed in the spring of 2020 when the Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic hit the world, the consequences for higher education in Europe were extensive. In a flash, higher education activities were moved online without enough time for neither preparation nor planning. Both students and the university's staff had to adapt to major changes in daily life. Follow-ups and evaluations showed that the universities coped with the change surprisingly well, but also that the challenges in teaching and learning were many, both for students and staff.

The guide is written because we want to share what we have developed and learned together with other universities in Europe.

Today we know that the changes that took place during the Coronavirus Pandemic have long-lasting consequences and that there are many different needs to continue developing new blended methods and strategies for teaching and learning. Read the guide and get our recommendations on how to tackle the challenges.
