The NSPDK e-Learning Academy was created out of a specific need developed during the outbreak of the Coronavirus Pandemic in March 2020. For the first time in the history of public education all states have closed at least one school in order to prevent the spread of the virus. Sixty present of the nation’s public schools remain closed two months later and will not reopen during this traditional school year. Although the NSPDK e-Learning Academy was an outgrowth of a need during the pandemic it is projected that e-Learning is here to stay. This is the beginning of full integration of e-Learning into all of education from hence forth.
