Abstract
The progress of the pandemic is poorly predictable. In this context, two scenarios for the education system adapting to it can be possible. The first scenario relies on the pandemic ending by the summer of this year, when the educational process, for the most part, will return to a normal mode - that is, to mainly a direct contact between teachers and students. The second scenario involves a continuation of the pandemic, where remote learning methods will have to be relied on at least for the duration of the fall semester, and possibly, over the entire next school year.
