Abstract

The pandemic response disrupted higher education to include remote learning beginning mid-spring semester 2020 and is expected to continue in some form at least through fall. This paper reviews recent changes in higher education traditions from factors such as finance, competition, and higher education's value proposition. Some traditions such as changes in collocation have escalated during the pandemic. A vision emerges of some traditions likely to form a "new normal," post-pandemic. As a response example, this paper proposes use of "supplemental recordings" to continue learner engagement especially as remote learning becomes more common.
