Global Learning Report 2021: Digital Transformation of Higher Education

The rapid digital shift to distance teaching in the context of the global pandemic gave new impetus to the discourse in higher education to address digital teaching and learning.

Together with the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) and Times Higher Education, the Global Learning Council (GLC) has been monitoring the pressing questions that have emerged around the value of teaching, barriers to equitable educational access, and guardrails needed for sustainable digital transformation over the past 16 months since the pandemic began in early 2020.

The voices of educators and higher education leaders gathered in the Global Learning Report 2021 – Digital Transformation of Higher Education form the basis for the recommendations for transformation of education provided for leaders of higher education institutions, policy-makers, and the ed tech industry.

The full report provides more information and deeper insights into what can be considered global challenges for digital learning, as well as all 30 recommendations in total.
