Covid and its effects on healthcare, the economy, workforce development and much more was the main focus for the American Association of Community Colleges (AACC) this year. As a result, the articles in CCDaily zeroed in on these areas to provide pertinent information for AACC-member colleges and their partners to weather the pandemic and move forward in this unprecedented environment.
So it’s not surprising that all of the top-read CCDaily articles of 2020 touched on some aspect of Covid, from strategies to address enrollment drops this fall, to providing hands-on learning experiences during the pandemic, and delving deeper into equity and social justice reform.
Developing the content was a team effort among our editors and reporters, AACC staff, the community colleges we serve and many others. We thank each and every person for helping. And please don’t hesitate to email us story ideas on what topics you would like to see covered in 2021.
