Introduction
The increasing ubiquity of digital technologies is democratising education like nothing before. Even as the world faces a health crisis with uncertain timelines, a number of higher education institutions are transitioning to an online model of teaching and learning. In some ways, the current situation has forced a global shift towards remote learning, teaching, assessment, interactions etc.
This webinar focused on some pertinent questions including:
- What kind of mindset change is required for learners and instructors in these models?
- What kind of IT capabilities must higher education institutions have to leverage the potential of such models?
- How does one reconcile the digital divide in this scenario?
