36. Teaching and
Learning
Legacy ofCovid-19
on Pedagogy
Can we offer live-teaching during term?
The general consensus in
schools is that there is
binary choice:
either we are teaching
through home learning;
or we are teaching face-to
face.
This is a false dichotomy.
Going forward, we can and
must do both.

Here are how the ISC Research Global Projections looked in January 2020. These will no doubt change because of the impact of coronavirus, but how they will change, the sector is yet to know.
ISC Research is continuing to track the market and gather data helping schools and supporting organisations to understand market change.
ISC Research values all the insights that international schools can share in order to provide accurate analysis of the impact to international schools the world over. ISC Research will, in turn, continue to share as much as it can with all international schools.
