Video therapy can be a great help when seeing patients face to face is not possible, as has widely occurred due to the Covid-19 lockdown. We must unpack and fully understand video therapy as a type of practice, given that it is different from our standard mode of therapy. Through a specific clinical case, I will highlight a paradox of this type of therapy: namely, that the screen can act as an aid for the patient but an obstacle for the therapist. Specifically, its mediation can support emotionally coerced patients to express and contact their emotions better, whilst this same screen can act as an obstacle for the therapist who may struggle to contain the patient emotionally. The clinical case I will discuss is about Judy, a patient who suffered relational trauma from early childhood, with whom I struggled to contain emotionally in her first real connection with her feelings, which occurred through video therapy.

The existence of COVID-19 which still hit Indonesia until in November 2020 had a negative impact on education in Indonesia, especially early childhood education. This makes learning, which was a face-to-face system, must be changed to distance education. In order for learning to continue optimally, of course, the teacher must be able to apply different learning strategies. In the pandemic era, schools implement online learning strategies, including at the Playgroup level. Online learning for children, of course, presents its challenges for the teachers. This study aims to investigate online learning strategies at the playgroup level. Play is also a means for children to channel their great energy and discover new things that were previously unknown in a fun way. And this is certainly different from learning that is understood by adults with all the rules and demands at the end. Playing (while learning) in early childhood has a purpose that adults may not realize, where when a child plays, in fact he is developing the potential that exists within him to become a solid initial capital for himself in the future when facing problems in life. This paper is expected to provide references and education to parents and early childhood teachers in particular to be able to understand the world of early childhood, one of which is by understanding the nature of play and the meaning of play for early childhood. This is obtained by exploring various sources from several literatures from the results of research and thought where the results can be used for early childhood parents and teachers to be more precise in assisting and designing learning for early childhood so that the pearl of early childhood learning, namely playing while learning can be achieved.

This chapter explores the intentional design, development, and continued improvement of an online graduate degree program for early childhood education (ECE) teachers and administrators. The authors will discuss the initial face-to-face design and the transition to an online program to better meet the needs of its students. The authors will also discuss the successes and challenges met throughout this process while providing an overview of the field of ECE. In the process, they will consider the unique demands of working in childcare and explain why using technology to offer online programs was an appropriate solution to the challenges experienced by early childhood professionals (ECPs). They will address why online delivery is a preferred method of professional development (PD) among ECPs. Further, this chapter will include an analysis of survey data on program quality and course satisfaction, providing practical recommendations based on what was learned from this case study.

Researchers conducting this research are interested in the learning strategies used by educators during the COVID-19 pandemic so that they can become a reference for parents in guiding children to learn online. The effect of learning for early childhood is difficulty in understanding explanations from educators, lack of socialization in children's lives because schools are held online, children's development and growth has decreased, children's achievement indicators will decrease. Online learning for children aged during this pandemic is not optimal because it has obstacles, namely COVID-19, which is the reason children experience the impact of learning at home.

This case study aims to report the efforts made by International Islamic University Malaysia to pursue the experiential pharmacotherapy attachment for the final-year of pharmacy students via online mediums in the light of the COVID-19 restrictions on face-to-face clinical experiential learning. A four-week virtual pharmacotherapy experiential attachments were redesigned and conducted via an online platform (Google Meet). Students were required to have a two-hour virtual discussion and consultation session with their preceptors twice a week throughout the attachment period. In each week, students were provided with real-life clinical cases that were chosen by their preceptors from the Department of Pharmacy Practice’s clinical case repository. Students were assessed via clinical case reports, virtual seminar presentations, weekly virtual discussions with preceptors, and virtual objective structured clinical examinations. All the virtual sessions were conducted on a synchronous basis to assure students’ active participation. Alongside this, a revised online final assessment was also designed.
