Sharing experiences of teaching and learning during COVID-19: Building responsive and resilient curriculum for the next normal

Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected educational institutions worldwide. The closure of schools and universities has led to a sudden shift of teaching away from the classroom to online learning. However, with little preparation, both teachers and students struggle with remote teaching and learning. Responding to the situation, IEEE units (including Councils/Sections as well as Education Society and local chapters) and different stakeholders in universities have quickly developed supporting programmes within a short period of time. After months of experimentation, it is beneficial to share experience gained and showcase resources developed, such that we can build responsive and resilient curriculum for the next normal. The session will be started by several invited lighting talk presentations, followed by a panel discussion and networking sessions. The major intended participants would be officers and members of Education Society local chapters. Teachers and other stakeholders are also welcome to participate.
