Introduction:

Due to the suspension of face-to-face activities during the COVID-19 pandemic, Higher Education Institutions had to discuss and plan alternative actions in an attempt to readequate themselves to emerging educational demands in order to offer remote accessibility to the academic community and, consequently, reduce social and digital exclusion.

Development:

Having that in mind, this article aims at offering a reflection on the teaching of bioethics under the perspective of social justice and education. Within this context, the students’ socioeconomic profile cannot be ignored in the planning of online education, since it directly affects students’ accessibility to academic activities through the use of computers and the internet. Therefore, this article proposes the use of moral intelligence skills as learning goals, in addition to revising and contextualizing pre-existing problems prior to the new reality of didactic contents. Moreover, it proposes a reflection on how bioethics may contribute to the discussions on the increase in social inequalities during this moment of crisis.

Conclusion:

The reflections presented in this article can be used in both remote, face-to-face and hybrid teaching contexts.
