Will it return to the classroom with us?

As schools and teachers have had to take a very proactive, almost overnight approach to tackling the challenges of teaching in lockdown, they’ve discovered some unexpected benefits in doing so. Although nothing can truly replace classroom learning, many teachers say they will continue to use a lot of the digital tools they’ve taken up during this time to improve their teaching in the future. In this article, teachers tell us about some of their personal ups and downs with online learning.

Thanks for using Education in Chemistry. You can view one Education in Chemistry article per month as a visitor.
