Teleradiology and remote video conferences can provide radiology residents the opportunity to participate in global radiology outreach. We reflect on how social distancing measures and remote education resources developed to address COVID-19 were applied to developing an international radiology elective.

In this article, at a time when we celebrate Paulo Freire’s centenary, we discuss the current moment crossed by profound crises. We problematize this context, especially with regard to the Brazilian educational scenario that experiences pressures for remote education in times of pandemic, looking in Freire’s legacy for clues to understand and seek answers to what we have lived and faced. We articulate Freire’s reference to the experiences lived by the Municipal Reference Center for Youth and Adult Education (Centro Municipal de Referência de Educação de Jovens e Adultos - CREJA), to the teaching work, tensioned by conservative projects, and the movement of lives understood in their potential for approximation and reflection in times of social distancing. We understand that revisiting Paulo Freire and having a dialog with his concepts is urgent and necessary, in the thickening for the densification of our actions and investigations in teacher education.

The article aims to understand, based on the perception of academics, the obstacles, difficulties and challenges for remote teaching in the Physics course at the Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do Piauí,Campus de Angical. Therefore, the starting point was to know: What is the perception of undergraduate Physics students about the challenges in remote education in the context of COVID-19? In the search for answers, a case study was outlined with 38 students, with the application of a questionnaire with open and closed questions, which enabled the production of quantitative and qualitative data analyzed based on the theoretical framework that underlies this study. We conclude that the main challenges for remote learning are related to the difficulties of academics in reconciling studies and domestic activities; impacts of social distancing on the emotional, with emphasis on situations such as anxiety, irritation and sadness; lack of access to equipment (computers, smartphone, tablet, etc.) and internet; reconcile work and study; use of technologies and applications related to remote learning, among others. Furthermore, the study demonstrated the support of family members to the connectivity assistance policy as an important factorin overcoming the difficulties faced by student

This study investigated the relationship between guilt appeal and compliance with social distancing measures. We proposed that the relationship is double mediated by empathy and responsibility for the unfortunate people who have suffered from COVID-19. This research is novel to an extent as an experimental method is used in the Asian context. The results exhibited that guilt positively affected compliance with social distancing measures. The respondents were directly or indirectly compliant due to the emotions of empathy and responsibility. The theoretical and practical contributions of this study were presented.
