A post-pandemic succinct report on synchronicity in Algeria: Between accustomation & amputation

The digital transformation has spelled out fundamental changes to increase effectiveness, agility, and fluidity in all domains of life. The implementation of digitalisation seemed to be imperative to better run the instructional process amid crises and in ordinary contexts. This paper examines synchronous learning immediately upon the pandemic, and in the current phase. It captures pros and cons with regard to mixed-instruction adoption, as well as the experience generated that would shape the participants’ stances. In parallel, it elicits post-pandemic responses through the lens of asynchronous context. Twenty (20) master’s students specialised in the field of didactics are the nucleus of this research paper. A qualitative descriptive method was used to fulfil the study’s intent. The findings postulate that, paired-instruction is more effective and enjoyable than unpaired one. Moreover, students began to be accustomed to the intertwining, and to the endorsed learning; and that, nostalgia feeling is patently surfacing.
