Tinna Björk Pálsdóttir - Teaching in the Global Pandemic - Iceland

The video discusses how Icelandic schools adapted during the pandemic. Initially, younger students continued attending school with shortened hours, while older students alternated between home and school. Each school had autonomy in decision-making, leading to varied approaches. Home teaching posed challenges, especially in areas lacking technology.
