We spent more than a month in self isolation. The vast majority of people on planet Earth who have access to the Internet spend a significant part of their time at the computer and telephone. Why do we donate time to the online world? What do we get from this right now and in the near future?
It turned out to be a discovery for a psychologist that he can conduct full-fledged consultations even using only text chat. For the organizer of social and cultural events, it unexpectedly turned out that he could organize concerts and panel discussions in an online format. People with mental disabilities participate in international conferences online.
Members of the cosmonaut team study remotely for future space flights, free divers train in a daily format in a Telegram for future deep-sea dives, blind people do yoga under the guidance of sighted trainers.
In general, a wide range of forms of training has become more accessible.
Most of us began to learn something new and completely unexpected in an easier way.
Transforming familiar activities into an online format is often not easy. Teachers and students of schools, colleges and universities are not easily included in the new format. It is hard for older people to master Zoom, Skype and WhatsApp. A gigantic volume of both qualitative and absolutely stupid information is falling upon a person. You forget which button to press on the computer, it is erased from memory, when and which conference is held with your participation. The most important question is how to realize your competence abilities in the new conditions? How to transform habitual activity or how to create a new effective one?
Self-isolation and the screen in front of us is a powerful limitation, in which the lion’s share of the world’s population fell. It is at the time of restriction that special talents and abilities begin to form and manifest themselves – extrability, first discovered in people with disabilities.
Human extrability develops due to limitations and successful socialization. Some of us have already developed extra-extremity due to, for example, professional development or long exposure to extreme conditions. Self-isolation mode is a new challenge for the formation of special abilities. In a new situation, we start to think differently. For example, when you habitually begin to plan local events related to your city or region, you suddenly catch yourself thinking: “If everything is done online, you can no longer do purely local projects.” Almost any of your activities becomes global and can be limited, for example, only by the language your project is in, and for the time being, as online translation technologies make a breakthrough every day in improving the quality of translations.
It will be great if we do not just adapt to the global Internet world or community, it is cool if we learn to grow with new abilities and competencies. To do this, we must learn to discuss online and about online what we could not talk about before.
We started modeling new features online on April 25th at the International Panel Discussion «New opportunities and challenges for experts in the field of inclusion in transition period». A video of the panel discussion is available at https://youtu.be/LqwW9JCNYwc
