| Summary: | The purpose of this paper is to present the attitude of teachers from Romanian undergraduate education system towards digital solutions in the COVID-19 era and post COVID-19 era. Moreover, one of the main objectives is to analyze teachers’ openness to the further integration of mobile solutions in Romanian undergraduate educational system. This paper relies on a case study about the way digital solutions were integrated in the teaching process during the pandemic and if and how they will be integrated in the post COVID-19 era. The data was collected through a questionnaire spread among teachers from all the levels of undergraduate educational system. After the analysis, it was identified that digital solutions were a great help to undergo the teaching process during the pandemic and, once discovering their benefits, the teachers are willing to further make use of them. Nevertheless, it is teachers’ strong belief that the traditional educational system can never be totally replaced by an online/mobile-based system, but that the two can coexist for the improvement of the pupils’ education and engagement. Overall, this paper contributes to the literature by offering an insight of the way digitalization of Romanian undergraduate education systems is viewed by one of the main actors of the learning process, the teachers. While digitalization in university context was highly discussed, the undergraduate context was not paid the same attention and this study aims to increase the awareness that the undergraduate educational system needs solutions for digitalization too. |
