| The socialist councilor Carmen Fructuoso proposes a battery of proposals to face the new circumstances of online education at the time of final exams | Fruitful: "Access to the internet and electronic devices for all students is essential so that they do not see their training conditioned and the City Council, as an administration closest to citizens, must be in charge of providing them." June arrives and with it the time for final exams.
However, this year we face an extraordinary situation.
COVID-19 has caused an interruption in teaching and face-to-face learning, having to take urgent measures to continue offering quality distance education.
"We are facing a new paradigm, young people will experience a time of online exams for the first time and not all of them have sufficient resources.
The City Council must be a support column for them, providing them with the resources they do not have within reach and need" , explains the councilor Carmen Fructuoso. The socialist mayor will present a motion to this effect to the next plenary session.
Carmen Fructuoso proposes a series of measures so that no student in the municipality is left behind in the face of the new circumstances that the current crisis marks.
"From the Municipal Socialist Group we believe that access to the internet or enabled devices is essential so as not to generate any circumstance of inequality among students.
We are going to propose in the next plenary session in May that the City Council make safe and secure fiber optics available to users the possibility of using municipal computer equipment, "says Fructuoso. "The young people of our municipality have not been oblivious to the new circumstances, according to their personal and family situation, they have been able to adapt to a greater or lesser extent to the new circumstances that the current crisis marks.
We must be aware of this and be aware of their needs, "says Fructuoso.
"For this we are going to urge the Municipal Government team to make available to students of the municipality, independent spaces in youth centers to be able to take their exams online in a safe way." In addition, the councilor proposes "that this proposal not only be developed in Municipal-Cultural Centers, but in all, bringing together several nearby districts that are connected to each other by public transport.
We cannot forget the many students who live in districts and neighborhoods peripherals of the municipality.
We must also offer solutions to them, "he remarks. "Our young people face online tests and exams in the coming months and it is necessary that they have the necessary resources to continue their training under equal conditions.
We hope that the Murcia City Council government team is there to offer them the support they need "concludes Fructuoso.
