Organizing curriculum is an important first step toward creating engaging learner-centered environment.
Considering teaching styles of faculty, learning styles of students, and the knowledge, skills, and abilities that

leveled throughout the program helps ensure students are learning at a rigorous, but feasible, pace.
Research the domains of learning, as well as active and passive learning.

something as complex as the various complications of Covid 19 (such as cardiac issues, blood clotting issues,
“long hauler issues”, etc) , or the emotional aspects of Covid 19 including depression and burn out).
