Abstract

For education worldwide, the global pandemic was a major shock. The Internet did not stop, but for a while, going to school did. It caused a worldwide leap to online education. For educational technology, it might have been a step forward, with some hesitancy: some will soon be forgotten, but much will be retained. This writing outlines a number of ideas and directions, posed in the form of questions, seeking to continue to move educational efforts forward, for in a post-pandemic world, education is still challenged by technology.
