As the world evolves, especially right now, online schooling is more prominent than ever. No one can say for sure what the future will hold, when schools will be back in person, or how effective online learning will be in years to come. However as the current pandemic changes our learning ways it is developing the use of technology and communication in varying ways. 

As we collaborated in lecture about this topic some of my colleagues talked about staggered starts for students in the fall, or limiting classroom sizes and daily activities. As the University of Regina announced fall classes will likely remain online, its uncertain to say what will happen in elementary school.

Schools will not look the same as they did before the pandemic. In some cases this will have a large negative impact on the social aspects students experiences at school from social distancing to lack of recess or free time. However this might open the door for more online learning opportunities. Whether in school or at home, the current pandemic has shown us how effective the use of technology can be. With the new knowledge and experience with technology students can receive more meaningful and valuable learning experiences which could change education in the future.
