Abstract
Through these three university pillars, the global community is expected to achieve the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) agenda that will see an improved quality of life in all aspects of human endeavour (Awuzie&Abuzeinab, 2019;UN, 2020). The commitment to ensuring equitable quality education and promoting lifelong learning opportunities for all, underscored by SDG number 4 (UN, 2020), has broadened the role HEIs are expected to play. In line with the World Health Organisations' guidelines on the Covid-19 pandemic, HEIs responded by downsizing workers and students in offices and lecture rooms, respectively, and also resorting to virtual graduation ceremonies (Maitanmi et al., 2021;Reimers & Marmolejo, 2020;Mncube, Mutongoza & Olawale, 2021). [...]of institutional unpreparedness, a rush for educators and student's induction to digital platforms ensued.
期刊介绍：
Perspectives in Education is a professional, refereed journal, which encourages submission of previously unpublished articles on contemporary educational issues. As a journal that represents a variety of cross-disciplinary interests, both theoretical and practical, it seeks to stimulate debates on a wide range of topics. PIE invites manuscripts employing innovative qualitative and quantitative methods and approaches including (but not limited to) ethnographic observation and interviewing, grounded theory, life history, case study, curriculum analysis and critique, policy studies, ethnomethodology, social and educational critique, phenomenology, deconstruction, and genealogy. Debates on epistemology, methodology, or ethics, from a range of perspectives including postpositivism, interpretivism, constructivism, critical theory, feminism, post-modernism are also invited. PIE seeks to stimulate important dialogues and intellectual exchange on education and democratic transition with respect to schools, colleges, non-governmental organisations, universities and technikons in South Africa and beyond.
