Description

Much has been lost during the COVID pandemic. It is important to recognize lives lost, challenges we all faced, and that this has been a challenging time for all of us. That said, over the past 18 months we have also learned a lot about ourselves and how we teach. In this session we will take a look at how educational technology was an integral part of delivering the best educational experience possible during the pandemic and, going forward, what can be kept, augmented, and even built upon to create better educational experiences for our students.
