Sarah Barrett, Associate Professor at York University's Faculty of Education was recently interviewed by 105.9 The Region on the impact of online learning and the results of Barrett's survey conducted in 2020.

Through surveying teachers Barrett found that last year's sudden change to online learning affected the majority of teacher's as they did not have a chance to prepare for the pivot from face to face to online learning. "That was a major source of difficulty for both the students and the teachers," says Barrett.
