Universities are going into the 2021-22 academic year with a greater capacity to deliver online and hybrid teaching than 12 months ago. But just as existing digital divides presented complex teaching challenges during the pandemic, faculty’s lack of digital literacy and of pedagogical training could render elements of universities’ digital transformations ineffective.
