Reimagining Higher Education Post-Pandemic
This chapter explores the shift towards online community college education post-pandemic, contrasting traditional universities with the transactional nature of community colleges focused on immediate career outcomes. It discusses challenges faced by students balancing work and family commitments, the move towards synchronous online learning, and replicating successful programs like CUNY's ASAP model. Additionally, it touches on the evolving perceptions of online education among faculty and students, the concept of 'stranded brilliance,' the importance of human connection in education, and aligning teaching skills with the future of work.
