Summaries of two thirds of a dozen research studies of the pivot to online learning (or remote teaching) in the spring of 2020. Many of these studies have been cited in these pages.

Overall, he concludes, North American universities responded exceptionally well to the crisis. Also, while "many faculty and administrators do not believe that major changes to teaching and learning will result in the long run," Bates does not share that view. Neither do I.
