Was distance education a success in Venezuela?

Although it was something unexpected and had to be taken as an extreme measure to safeguard the integrity of all, distance education for me in our country left much to be desired, it showed in evidence that communication structures such as television, the internet have been severely neglected for a long time, the open TV signal by the which was broadcast certain classes that sometimes did not fit the reality of some regions, did not even reach 20 per cent of it, the state-owned company CANTV, which at one time enjoyed a stable platform providing its telephony and internet communication services, which was extremely accessible to most households left to see their total absence in this process, private companies that provide internet service only reach a single fraction of the population due to their high installation and maintenance costs, others such as that of movistar suffer constant problems of interruption in their service due to power failures, this left the vast majority of students without the possibility of direct communication with teachers who were carrying the educational process at a cost.

One drawback presented was the large number of activities allocated for the home, which represented a great problem for the investigation of these topics, the usurpation of obligations since there were activities carried out by other people, problems also arose for teachers, because when following central guidelines they forgot about the their own reality and sometimes the teachers who were still in educational institutions collapsed, there were even cases of maintenance workers correcting school activities did not correspond to them.
