In this episode, we explore what the ‘new normal’ might look like, what adjustments we should make to our instructional design, equity, and assessment during this unique situation, as well as how to seize the many new learning moments and opportunities this pandemic has offered. We also explore different methods of accounting for underprivileged students as we move into a new mode of higher education, as well as how to care for vulnerable communities. Find out how we can move to the online space, without compromising on academic expectations and experiences, and how to shift our mindsets and start finding innovative ways to create new opportunities for students to learn in this unique online environment.
There is much to be explored in this topic; tune in to join the conversation now.
