Older Adult English Language Learning during the Pandemic of COVID-19
Original language description
The pandemic of COVID-19 created an unexpected challenge to the whole educational system and reintroduced the topic of distance learning and its importance. Society reacted to epidemiological restrictions in social contacts by transferring the education into the virtual space but older English language learners benefit from social contacts and are usually limited in digital skills. The article analysis situation in the English language courses of the Universities of the Third Age (U3A) in the Czech Republic between March 2020 and July 2020. The text is based on a literature review and questionnaires to the U3A organisers and leads to the conclusion that older English language learners were left only with limited opportunities for their English language development at that time.
