The most significant impact of the pandemic on higher education is the shift to online learning and teaching, but as staff and students can, hopefully, move back to campuses, should we retain an element of the online experience? Will blended learning - combining online materials with the traditional classroom experience - become the new normal? What benefits does this approach bring to higher education? What approach do universities have to take to make sure blended learning is a success?
Natasha's guests are academics who have extensive experience in blended learning, combining online teaching and learning with the campus experience. They are Professor Jackson Too from the Commission for University Education in Kenya and Dr Luz Longsworth, Pro-Vice-Chancellor and Principal of the University of the West Indies Open Campus, that’s the online and flexible learning campus. We also hear from Christine Koine, a first-year Information Science student at Kenyatta University in Nairobi.
