Lessons from the Pandemic: bringing it back into school

About This Resource

This session on Virtual Learning will cover lessons from lockdown. These will include online and effective digital teaching and learning practices, to the use of efficient automated marking and assessment tools and the study of rich data through system applications for academic progression and engagement. As we return back to our new normal landscape, our knowledge and experiences accumulated over the last 2 years will serve to be very powerful. The big question is what are we doing to bring back into our schools?
