Abstract

This article aims to analyze the contributions of on line distance learning in higher education during COVID-19 disease confinement. We compare experiences in the social work area of two universities, one face-to-face and the other virtual. Outcomes of meeting sessions explain competences, aptitudes, skills and behaviors between teachers and students to enhance the transmission of knowledge in this context. Main conclusions of this interaction between universities are related to benefits of the use of new technologies, ethical questions in exams, practices in Social Work and the verification of the digital divide as an element of social exclusion.
