Perhaps this synergy was most profoundly tested in the past few months, as teaching was predominantly conducted online. Educators lament that effective teaching and learning can only occur if content delivery is proficient, and online teaching may regress this process. Before this becomes a reality, teaching and learning via online platforms may very well still be the new norm this year. Students are getting used to receiving information via Zoom or Google Hangout sessions, and the online learning management systems adopted by universities are fully utilised by the academic ecosystem. My students applauded my decision of sharing recorded lectures online, as they are able to digest the information at their own pace and time.
