The coronavirus pandemic mandated unexpected 'instant transitions' to remote learning and accelerated student demand for online courses. As a result, colleges and universities in the U.S. and around the world began and have continued to expand their online courses and degree programs. The online learning industry is projected to pass $370 billion by 2026 and one third of post-secondary school administrators indicate they will continue to offer both remote and online course options even after their campuses completely resume offering in-person, face-to-face courses. Students have demonstrated there is an increased demand for online courses as well. A national survey of 1,413 students, registered at U.S. higher education institutions in fall 2020 and spring 2021, said their experiences with learning remotely during the pandemic left them with a positive attitude toward online and hybrid courses. This increased interest calls attention to the need for more scholarly examination of online teaching and learning.

Each year instructors and scholars contemplate their instructional spaces in search of information about incoming students and how best to relate course content to a new generation of learners. Communication Instruction in the Generation Z Classroom: Educational Explorations outlines communication considerations for effectively interacting with and instilling pedagogical practices that appeal to Gen Z using communication tools and course design principles to effectively engage students. Contributors raise questions about research areas in need of additional exploration as instructors and scholars seek to understand how communication influences classrooms, learners, and the broader world. Given the relationship between teacher communication and student success, instructors across disciplines, as well as scholars of communication, pedagogy, and social sciences will find this book particularly interesting. It is also suitable for graduate students in teaching assistant positions, faculty developers, and educators at various institutions.
Post-Pandemic Pedagogy: A Paradigm Shift discusses how the COVID-19 pandemic radically altered teaching and learning for faculty and students alike. The increased prevalence of video-conferencing software for conducting classes fundamentally changed the way in which we teach and seemingly upended many best practices for good pedagogy in the college classroom. Whether it was the reflection over surveillance software, or the increased mental health demands of the pandemic on teachers and students, or the completely reshaped ways in which classes and co-curricular experiences were delivered, the pandemic year represented an opportunity for one of the largest shifts in our understanding of good pedagogy unlike any experienced in the modern era. This edited collection explores what we thought we knew about a variety of teaching ideas, how the pandemic changed our approach to them, and proposes ways in which some of the adjustments made to accommodate the pandemic will remain for years to come. Scholars of communication, pedagogy, and education will find this book particularly interesting.
