Tony Bates gives us the first draft of an introductory section to a revision he's writing for the third edition of his text Teaching in a Digital Age. I love the way he does this work so openly. The new material summarizes and reflects on the impact of the pandemic on our understanding of teaching online. "Some of the educational changes resulting from emergency remote learning were positive," he writes. "Instructors and teachers gained a better understanding of online learning, in particular the advantages and limitations of synchronous and asynchronous learning. Many instructors and teachers received extensive support and training." It's not a long addition, but certainly relevant.
