AGENDA
ABOUT GECPC2021
The past year has challenged all of us in many ways and the education sector is still experimenting with remote teaching as half of the global student population is still affected by full or partial school closures. Teaching professionals have had to adapt to extended periods of minimal social contact, of working from home, of altering lesson plans, of home-schooling their own children and their students at the same time, and of learning new digital tools to support teaching and research. We have had to be resilient and creative during these hard times.
This conference is held to provide a forum for sharing the latest ideas and developments, best practices and principles with regards to conducive and supportive environments needed to enhance teaching and learning from the misalignment between resources and needs to the reality checks we must all come to terms with in regards to leadership and management strategies in the new norm.
