education, however, treated as an ‘option’ not ‘obligation’ in this time of crisis (Bozkurt et al., 2020).
Furthermore, ERE enables the making the most of available resources including a wide range of
technologies that offer capabilities for remote learning. It is also emphasized that, in this case, ERE is

education practices long before (Bozkurt et al., 2020). Considering current COVID-19 crisis, World Bank
