“…This trend will likely continue post-COVID-19 in shaping the future of higher education (Camilleri 2021). The use of technology should also be balanced with hands-on experiences and traditional classroom instruction to ensure that students are well-rounded and have a diverse range of skills and knowledge (Rasli et al 2022). Distance education is not a new phenomenon in South Africa, but the advancement in communication technology has significantly impacted education delivery, pre-and post-COVID-19 (Badaru & Adu 2022).…”

“…It does, however, have limits in terms of providing students with a thoroughly comprehensive hands-on experience. To solve this, merging augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) technology can improve virtual laboratory engagement and immersion (Rasli et al 2022).…”

“…Higher education institutions may ensure timely and accurate information to all stakeholders by digitising administrative development, which is vital for promoting high-quality instruction and fostering student success (Teixeira 2023). Furthermore, big data, artificial intelligence (AI) and statistical analysis can provide important insights into student behaviour and performance, allowing faculty to make educated and proactive decisions (Rasli et al 2022). Improving student success may significantly contribute to the university's overall aims.…”

The reviewers were independent of the publisher, editor(s) and author(s). The publisher shared feedback on the similarity report and the reviewers' inputs with the manuscript's editor(s) or author(s) to improve the manuscript. Where the reviewers recommended revision and improvements, the editor(s) or author(s) responded adequately to such recommendations. The reviewers commented positively on the scholarly merits of the manuscript and recommended that the book be published. v Research justificationLocal economic development (LED) is at the core of developing a sustainable, inclusive and resilient local region. Local economic development aims to involve all role-players (local government, private sector and community) in the decision-making process in order to create a participatory environment where social and environmental concerns are balanced with economic pursuits. Achieving this is a challenge for local governments in developed and developing regions. The global coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak has brought about an entirely new set of challenges for local governments, businesses (formal and informal) and policymakers. This book aims to highlight how local economies are impacted during times of a global pandemic from global perspectives.The outbreak of the global COVID-19 pandemic has presented unprecedented challenges to developed and less-developed local economies. The book aims to uncover the best practices in responding to a pandemic from regional perspectives and from a trans-disciplinary point of view. Scholars from various spheres in the arts, culture, education, health, environment, business and the public sector present their perspectives on the impacts, responses and consequences for local economies and communities. As a fundamental part of LED, the arts, culture, education, health, environment, business and public sector domains were some of the hardest hit by the pandemic, and the pandemic has certainly exposed the weaknesses of current development policies and calls for new, innovative measures in developing resilient local regions. This book forms an essential part of the development series of the Centre for Local Economic Development (CENLED) as it offers insight into how a global pandemic (COVID-19) impacted LED in various regions and the different responses from different spheres.

“…It is important to highlight that "the COVID-19 pandemic is a unique opportunity for educators and policymakers to rethink education systems and reimagine what is important, necessary, and desirable for future generations" (Rasli, Tee, Lai, Tiu, & Hui, 2022). The article of Michael A. Kozakowski, Kaitlin A. Lucas and Iurii Rudnev aptly points out that the pandemic has provided a push for several decades-long, ongoing transformations of higher education, namely digitalization and internationalization efforts.…”

Is there a need for more research on the effects of COVID-19 on education? While there is research suggesting that the impacts and “the troubling effects of the pandemic on research and higher education… might be felt for years to come” (The Lancet Editorial, 2020), there is also discernible pandemic fatigue, not only among the population, but researchers and subjects of research as well (Patel, Webster, Greenberg, Weston, & Brooks, 2020). Indeed, there has been an overabundance of published research articles in nearly all disciplines about the pandemic. The purpose of the current special issue is not to repetitively take stock of what happened during the pandemic but rather explore how the pandemic transformed the education system while rethinking certain practices and strategies engrained in the education system. To some extent, then, taking stock of what we know about the pandemic should help us prepare for the era some call the “new normal post-COVID-19 era” (Cahapay, 2020).
