Proposal for Presentation
This comparative case study aimed to explore how Covid-19 related school closures impacted continuity of teaching and learning in six K-12 schools in the West-African countries of Senegal, The Gambia, and Guinea-Bissau. Thematic analysis was conducted using an inductive approach. While this study reveals the stark reality of the digital divide among the schools, emerging themes show how some schools have adapted to the new reality of teaching and learning in the age of Covid-19.
