Faced with the global pandemic and the subsequent return to in-person learning, the University of Victoria deployed Brightspace (a new learning management system), Zoom, Teams, Crowdmark, Kaltura and ultimately Echo360 to respond to the challenges of remote learning and address the shifting modalities of learning and teaching.
In this AMA, you will have the opportunity to discuss with the panel about challenges encountered and strategies used to successfully navigate large scale change with learning technologies and supports.
