Abstract

JYU's COVID-19 project studies increase in strain and inequality of teachers and most vulnerable children at school and young adults in the digital consumer society. The sub-project CONE investigates changes in teachers' and students' wellbeing, their resilience and the effect of remote teaching on student outcomes and parents' role in the process. The sub-project CoronaConsumers studies young adults' financial and digital behaviour and economic situation. CONE provides a solid foundation and tools for school, teachers and students to recover from the epidemic and to identify new forms of home-school partnership. The outputs of CoronaConsumers provide knowledge about the effects of the corona-crisis on young people's economic position and about their resilience in post-corona society. The research helps in targeting the support actions to reduce inequality and increase the resilience of young adults and to reveal the creative potential of the young in solving the economic crisis.
