As Asha Kanwar, the president and the chief executive officer
of the Commonwealth of Learning (COL), stated in the
acknowledgments part of the book “This book comes at an
unprecedented moment in history when the COVID-19
pandemic has disrupted every sphere of activity”. As is known,
the COVID-19 pandemic forced governments to make a
quick transition to distance and online learning. Immediately
after the transition, many problems arose, and also there
were many solutions proposed and adapted. Responding to
the COVID-19 context, this book strongly argues for the
importance of policies and the reimagination of education
to take full advantage of open and distance learning (OER)
and Information and Communication Technologies (ICT).
