In this episode, Dr. Mark Milliron, Senior Vice President & Executive Dean of the Teachers College at Western Governors University, joins Elizabeth Crofoot, Senior Economist at the Committee for Economic Development of The Conference Board (CED), to discuss the role that remote learning can play in reimagining a more equitable and resilient education system. We lay out the pandemic-borne challenges and opportunities for online learning, focusing on the potential for using education technologies both in and out of the classroom to offer more effective blended learning in both K-12 and post-secondary settings.
This conversation follows the release of CED’s report, “Reimagining K-12: Emerging from Disruption with Insights for Reform,” that offers policymakers and education leaders recommendations for harnessing best practices from the pandemic experience and making online education a central part of K-12 education.
