We are facing challenging times. The pandemic has not only disrupted education globally, but has also exacerbated preexisting inequalities. On the other hand, COVID has also been time for experimentation and innovation. Today, our World Bank EdTech team member Senior Education Technology Specialist Cristobal Cobo is speaking with World Bank colleagues Senior Education Specialist Karthika Radhakrishnan-Nair, Education Specialist Diego Armando Luna Bazaldua, and Consultant Aishwarya Khurana about assessments, how assessments have been adapted to the remote education settings, and lessons can we learn from these experiences for education after the pandemic.
