The outbreak of second wave of COVID-19 pandemic has again halted routine life of normal citizen across the globe. The nature always support the change for better future and covid-19 has provide chance to change challenges into opportunities. This study is sought to examine post Covid-19 effects on ICT infrastructure for e-learning education and its quality assurance mechanism in SAARC countries. This research is descriptive in nature and use comparative analysis of numerous challenges faced by SAARC member countries for implementation of E-learning. Challenges and limitation are also brush-up for further refinement in future in these areas. Future researchers may conduct survey techniques in explanatory research on implementation of ICT infrastructure of SAARC region countries.

The Way

Discussed is the problem of some range of challenges, specific for the Russian system of education on the way to massive distant learning in the first half of 2020. The article raises two main questions. The first is the question of providing the conformity of technical requirements, needed for functioning of programs, applying for distant learning, with technical capabilities of computers and other gadgets, that students use to get access to online education programs. Author concludes, that this problem may be partially solved by optimization programs for distant learning for using with low end technic. The second question is the way to make impossible student’s cheating while the attestation including fake technical problems (such as non-working web-camera). The author makes the conclusion about necessity of adding to the distant learning complex special addon for monitoring student’s gadgets during the intermediate certification: its operability, using programs and apps in time of exam.

Text Simplification

In recent years the COVID pandemic has influenced education significantly. The pace of digital transformation is very fast and requires a change of mindset. Translators or cross-language mediators have to work at the focal point of various information transfer processes. We think that a digital mindset of a future translator can be created by re-contextualising classroom communication reality with online teaching tools that will ensure synchronous and asynchronous studies. The challenges of online resources variety can be responded to by classifying them according to L2 communicative competence and translation competence structural components. Thus the choice of sources can be narrowed down according to specific teaching objectives. The research proposes a classification of online resources for mediation competence development which is a communicative competence component according to CEFR. Classification categories include online teaching tools that can help develop (1) skills of mediating concepts, texts, communication; (2) strategies of explaining new concepts and strategies of text simplification. The classification is used to work out a few sample activities for an L2 course within translation curriculum. It is assumed that the classification and sample activities will help teachers be more flexible facing distance learning challenges in translation teaching.
