Event Highlights:

The event kicked off with each participant introducing themselves and sharing ideas on the disruptions and learnings from online learning experiences which have transformed the education industry in the last two years. The discussion revolved around online classroom platforms and students missing out on human interactions at schools. The participants also talked about how data collection gave them insights on online course design, online course evaluation, and student engagement in class.
