A Report Card on the Crisis: What is the Legacy of the Great Onlining of Higher Education?

Dear EDEN Members and Colleagues,

The EDEN 2021 European Online and Distance Learning Week is closing on Wednesday, 10 November, at 12:00 CET.

In this session we will reflect on the present situation in higher education in post pandemic times.

Join us to share your views and reflections on important questions:

  • How well did we cope and what lessons did we learn?
  • How are those lessons reflected in future planning?
  • What should stay and what needs to change?
  • Why did we need a pandemic as the catalyst for the digital transformation of higher education? 

And many more questions!
