Colleges and universities are facing decisions about how to continue teaching and learning while keeping their faculty, staff and students safe in the advent of the COVID-19 pandemic. Many institutions have opted to cancel all face-to-face classes, including labs and other learning experiences, and have mandated the faculty to move their courses online to help prevent the spread of COVID-19.
This discussion was to explore issues faced by diverse academics in different academic backgrounds and how they are navigating this phenomenon. This forum was centered around the concept of Pandemic Pedagogy.
There were about 160 participants from 10 countries (Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia, India, Pakistan, Zimbabwe, Germany, Afghan, Egypt, USA) attended this online round table session.
