In the wake of the global pandemic, with campus access strictly limited, the transition to completely remote instruction for the fall semester has posed technical challenges for some students, especially those without experience with online classes.
“We hope that [instructors] will use methods/platforms that are easy for our students to access and that they will be mindful of the variety of skills and experiences that students have,” said Ginny McReynolds, associate vice president of instructional services. “This way, all students can access whatever the instructor is presenting.”
