My goodness, it is amazing how much our world has changed in a short period of time.
Two years ago I was in the Norwegian city of Stavanger for a conference. We were talking about strategies to strengthen public education and improving student outcomes around the world. Flash forward to 2021, no one is traveling, conferences are all virtual, and the things we were talking about then pale in comparison to the challenges facing a post-COVID world.
Anyway. Back to the happier time. When the conference was finished for the day I made sure to get into the city to explore. There was also a lovely park near the conference centre that was a great spot for morning walks.
