Abstract

The current educational context is shaped by the need to address learning losses caused by global crises such as pandemics, wars, and economic instability. This study aims to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of pedagogical strategies to overcome learning losses in the face of contemporary challenges. The strategies analyzed include the use of information and communication technologies, the development of resilience, problem-based and interactive learning, the intensification of the educational process, individualized learning trajectories, psychological, pedagogical, and social support, as well as professional development programs for teachers. The study used questionnaires, experimental methods, and comparative analysis of results throughout the stages of the experiment, which began in 2024, with control measurements taken in June and December 2024. The evaluation criteria defined were academic performance, student engagement, psychological well-being, and sustainability of the educational process, with corresponding indicators. Questionnaires for students and teachers were developed according to these criteria. The most effective strategies were identified, and their sustained impact on educational equity and learning efficiency was confirmed.
