Challenges and Transitions in Education in Times of Crisis

Leah Purpuri

The COVID-19 pandemic emerged as a disruptive force that exposed numerous challenges. From the sudden shift to virtual learning accompanied by technology disparities to issues of diversity, equity, and inclusion, the crisis impacted students, families, educators, and leaders alike. The social and emotional well-being of learners took center stage, and the need for academic rigor became even more pressing as learning gaps widened. Teachers faced the challenge of maintaining motivation, while complications in students' home lives became increasingly apparent. The involvement, or lack thereof, of families and communities in the education process added another layer of complexity. It is within this complex educational landscape that our book presents itself as a beacon of hope and transformation. Challenges and Transitions in Education in Times of Crisis is the solution to the unprecedented challenges that COVID-19 brought to the education sector. It goes beyond just analyzing the problems and delves deep into innovative and actionable solutions that have emerged from this crisis. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the educational environment, from pre-pandemic to post-pandemic, through a lens of opportunity. It is a guide for all stakeholders in education, presenting evidence-based strategies and best practices to address the complex issues facing our schools.
