Abstract ///

In 2020, our world was changed by the coronavirus pandemic code-named COVID-19. Situations and events have emerged which, until now, were only imaginable in a Hollywood script. 
  
The impact of COVID is without precedent in our modern times. Nothing and nobody has been spared. Every country, economy, business, household and individual - has been affected in some way.  
  
And then, there's education. University campuses and schools have closed their doors. Students are attending lectures and classes, virtually. And office workers have been told to work (and learn) remotely, from home. 
  
Many believe COVID represents a challenge for education. This is true. However, I also see an opportunity for a paradigm shift which empowers us to re-think the way we learn. 
  
This presentation offers 7 tools to facilitate remote learning with Moodle. 
  
In a time of great crisis - we need to be courageous. As educators - we can be the brave heroes. We are essential workers - in the front line.
