Coronavirus May Shut Schools But Should Not Stop Us Learning

Italy, South Korea and Iran are the most affected countries outside China, all recorded thousands of cases and drastic increase in new cases over the past few days. A growing number of schools across the world are shutting down in order to contain the virus outbreak. However, this doesn’t mean students cannot learn and study anymore.

The process of finding the right platforms could be long and painful but once you have found them, you will see the power and benefits of e-learning which is extremely flexible, accessible, responsive, cheaper and greener!
