As much as I wish it were better, most online courses offered by universities do not come close to the in-person experience. Their real goal/outcome is to increase access.

Professors are trained (most at least) to teach in-person and have assignments and curriculums that match. They can't redo that appropriately to be equally effective within a week or two. Few could do it well given over a year doing online only.

Tools are being built and the experience will improve thanks to this global reset.

Education is a space that hasn't really been disrupted ever. Definitely isn't happening within a few weeks.
