Thank you, Bart, for a great conversation! Here are my key takeaways from the conversation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Since the start of the pandemic, 92% of post-secondary student programs have moved to some or all online (Statistics Canada, 2020). Most students have taken some online learning. This stat can either be a positive or negative thing. If students had a great experience with online learning, we should see higher enrollment in online classes. If students had a negative experience, they might be hesitant to register for another online course. We have already seen a shift toward online learning before the pandemic: &#8220;online registrations are growing approximately 10% year over year, while face-to-face registrations are flat\u201d (Contact North, 2019). It will be interesting to see if this number will grow or decline over the next few years.<\/li><li>Only 45% of rural communities have high-speed internet (Canada Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission, n.d.) This could impact learners in remote areas. If zoom or other video communication tools are used, remote learners could be at a disadvantage. This needs to be considered when offering online courses.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p>References:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Statistics Canada.
