The virtual age of learning is no longer a concern of the future. It is here. The Fall 2021 Webinar Audio Series (WAS) of the International Association of Medical Science Educators (IAMSE), titled “Back to the Future: Maximizing Student Learning and Wellbeing in the Virtual Age,” was designed to help health science educators equip themselves with tools to teach the next generation of health care professionals successfully. From September 2, 2021 to September 30, 2021, the Fall 2021 Series was broadcast live to audiences at academic institutions worldwide in five weekly webinars. This five-part webinar series explored theories and best practices in delivering content over virtual and online media while simultaneously promoting a positive learning environment and enhanced student wellbeing.
