Abstract

The 2020/2021 Covid-19 pandemic generated substantial changes in education throughout the world. Rapid changes had to be executed without sufficient time for replanning the course of teaching. In addition to applying and extending familiar methods and techniques, instructors and institute leaders developed creative ideas for addressing this emergency situation. A crucial question concerns whether educators switched to methodological approaches and tools that differed from those utilised previously. In addition to providing an overview of the educational programme’s methodological background, this paper presents some of the particular changes that were introduced in the context of courses in foreign language teacher’s education at Eötvös Loránd University’s Faculty of Primary and Preschool Education (ELTE TÓK).
