Education Post COVID-19 | Blended Learning: Readiness and Engagement | WeCanEduTech 14/01/2021

In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic forced us to rapidly change from our brick-and-mortar ways to teaching and learning remotely. What will the new or next normal in education look like?

I have written the following article (link below) where I talk about how blended learning can be implemented and how we can increase student engagement in a blended learning environment. I would love to know what you think, and please share with anyone you think might be interested. https://www.wecanedutech.com/post/education-post-covid-19-blended-learning-readiness-and-engagement
