The Alternative Education in Emergencies Resource Kit is an 11-module knowledge product that provides guidance for teachers and school administrators on how alternative and flexible learning options can help sustain quality learning after a disaster, and how they can be adapted to suit a range of contexts and evolving needs as communities gradually recover to normalcy. Module 4 of the Alternative Education in Emergencies Resource Kit is about jumpstarting education in emergencies. It provides ideas on priority actions to take at the early stages of conceptualizing EiE interventions, such as selecting an alternative learning modality. It presents the advantages and disadvantages of various learning modalities, and what to consider when choosing to apply a learning modality in an emergency.
