In 2020, several new educational practices saw the light of day, outlining a possible blueprint for tomorrow's education. Multimedia content and gamification became teaching tools and could well become the norm in 2021.
"I wrote my probability exam online, but then I had a scanner problem. I was two minutes late to hand in my paper and it wasn't accepted," said Oussama, a student in mathematics at the University of Rennes 2, France. In 2020, many exams had to be taken online because of the pandemic, and most classes during the year meant days spent in front of a computer. While these virtual teaching methods were implemented in high schools and universities at the last minute to make up for closed institutions during lockdowns, they may well become the norm in the coming months.
