The Covid-19 pandemic disrupted the world in ways unimaginable. As we look back at the past two years and the harsh repercussions of the pandemic that continue to date, it is apparent that one of the most impacted sectors was education. Neither the world nor educational institutions were prepared to embrace the shift to online platforms brought on at lightning speed.
