This text discusses the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on Brazilian education. Firstly, it re-flects on the terms Distance Education, Online Teaching and Emergency Remote Teaching and argues that the names change as a way to combat prejudice against any form of teaching that is not face to face. Then, some effects of the pandemic in Brazilian education are presented with examples from two Brazilian states and some reflection about Brazilian federal univer-sities. In addition, it addresses two discomforts felt by teachers and students when they are in virtual learning environments. Teachers com-plain that students do not open their camer-as and students miss their teachers’ presence in the online environment. Some suggestions are given and the text concludes that educa-tion will never be the same again, that Internet has become a public need and that education policies must change.
