The President and Vice Chancellor of the University of Waterloo, Feridun Hamdullahpur, says hello.

At the beginning of the new term, our university president Feridun Hamdullahpur likes to drop in to classes and say hello to students. Of course, that’s not really possible this year, so I asked him if he’d like to say hello, in asynchronous fashion, to the students in my graduate seminar on online teaching. He kindly agreed to do so, and he also answered a few questions about the impact of the pandemic on university education. Thanks, Feridun, for sharing your time and thoughts with us.

For Fall Term 2020 this blog will be exploring issues informing education during a pandemic. It is appearing as part of a graduate seminar on online teaching and learning. You can read more about the seminar or see the other posts.
