Teaching Matters Edinburgh19 Tammi 2022

Learning together in a global pandemic

In this podcast, the Institute for Academic Development's (IAD) Dr Catherine Bovill, Senior Lecturer in Student Engagement, and Celeste McLaughlin, Head of Academic Development for Digital Education, discuss a collaborative international research project that sought to understand the changes to teaching practices as they went online during the initial period of the Covid-19 pandemic. This episode complements the blogpost, "Learning together during a global pandemic: Practices and principles for teaching and assessing online in uncertain times".

Catherine and Celeste's conversation covers fascinating questions about how teachers have collectively adapted to the pandemic, as well. How did sentiment towards online learning change from the onset of the pandemic to six months in? How has online teaching led educators to rethink their practices? How has the pandemic changed the practices of teachers who were already teaching in a digital space? What did educators consider to be the 'biggest losses' from transitioning to online teaching?
