Many schools and teachers around the world are wrestling with the future face of instruction starting in the fall and beyond. Over the past four or five months, many schools have gone completely online, but as the world appears to be opening up to some degree, some institutions are opening back up to face-to-face instruction with some accommodations and safety measures, while others are considering a hybrid model of instruction where classes include a combination of face-to-face learning plus online instruction as well. Still others are going to continue with online-only instruction. This episode addresses these areas.
