With Lessons From Remote Instruction, UCSB Professors Consider the Future of In-Person Learning


March 10, 2021 at 12:37 pm by Micah Meghreblian and Sindhu Ananthavel

Drake announced in early January that the UC system plans to offer classes in person beginning this fall, but questions still linger regarding the extent to which in-person classes will revert back to their pre-pandemic structure.
