In a year where schools were closed, parents had to step up to the plate and take on the secondary role of teacher helping their children with schooling from their homes. This became mentally and logistically challenging for many families as the daily requirements of keeping up with assignments and working in a digital classroom became impossible to manage as both teachers, parents and students had to adjust to a changing educational landscape. Many students have fallen behind due to lack of access to the necessary tools needed to complete assignments. In this episode we look at the challenges that face education in the future.

Quote:
“Learning isn't just in a box. We are always trying to think outside of the box, but how do you leverage the skills and gifts you have within your box?  2021 has taught us that we need to get to know ourselves. We need to get to know what we're capable of doing and rely on what we have.”
