Abstract

DLAMINI, Rejoice K. A reflection on History Education in higher education in Eswatini during COVID-19. Y&T [online]. 2020, n.24, pp.247-256. ISSN 2309-9003.

Most higher education institutions had not anticipated the shift to online teaching on such a massive scale and the sector was not well prepared for the challenge. This hands-on article is a reflection on the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on History Education in higher education in Eswatini. The reflection intends to bring to light the challenges encountered and the opportunities offered for a new digital pedagogy for History Education in Eswatini as a new educational landscape emerged.
