| description |
The COVID-19 pandemic has closed schools
around the world, forcing school systems and students to
quickly attempt remote learning. A rapid response phone
survey of over 1,500 high school students aged 14 to 18 in
Ecuador was conducted to learn how students spend their time
during the period of quarantine, examine their access to
remote learning, and measure their mental health status. The
data show that 59 percent of students have both an internet
connection at home and a computer or tablet, 74 percent are
engaging in some online or telelearning, and 86 percent have
done some schoolwork on the last weekday. Detailed time-use
data show most students have established similar daily
routines around education, although gender and wealth
differences emerge in time spent working and on household
tasks. Closure of schools and social isolation are the two
main problems students say they face, and while the majority
are mostly happy, 16 percent have mental health scores that
indicate depression. |
