On 29th of October 2020, Dean of the Faculty of Economics Anna Harutyunyan participated in a seminar “Improving access and delivering quality flexible learning and assessment”

During the seminar, speakers represented the challenges which have been raised as a consequence of COVID-19. It has expedited digital transformation in higher education, which encouraged university staff to rethink how to deliver education to students. This led to accelerated innovation and the need to embrace technology to find solutions.

The seminar brought together leaders in higher education and various experts.

The experts discussed vital changes in technologies in the sphere of education. Moreover, in this new era of teaching, educators must give students flexibility in creating their own learning experiences. They need long-term plans because universities do not envision returning to the way they taught prior to the lockdowns. The future offers many opportunities, including greater use of learning analytics, more control of the pace of learning, recorded lectures, increased engagement, and wider access to education. Technology will play a vital role.
