AIS World subscribers: I am extraordinarily pleased to announce that CAIS has begun publishing to our AIS Digital Library papers accepted for our Special Section: COVID-19, Learning, Pedagogy, and Educational Systems. Thank you to the special section co-editors, Craig Van Slyke, Heikki Topi, and Mary Granger. We will be adding papers as soon as they are completely through the editing processes. We have already published the first 5 papers and have more scheduled. Eventually we will have approximately 33 papers on topics ranging from adjusting to distance teaching of particular courses, particular IS content such as programming, working with teams, tactical issues such as creating engagement, and global access issues such as making sure all students have the technology to connect with the teaching content. The special section will conclude with an editorial discussing overall themes, remaining challenges, and acknowledging the hard work that went into preparing this special section in just a bit more than half a year. We believe that almost everyone teaching in the IS field from those who never taught outside the face-to-face setting to those entirely teaching remotely have learned lessons with the dramatic shift necessitated by the Covid 19 pandemic to fully computer mediated education. Our thinking is that we each learned lessons, but not the same ones. By recording and sharing our individual lessons learned (and sometimes things we learned to avoid) it is our hope that we can profit collectively from our own and each other’s new knowledge to accelerate our ability to integrate all manner of communication forms into our emergent stronger, better, and more effective teaching, curricula, and systems. Please note this special section is in addition to our on-going interest in receiving submitted IS educational papers and teaching cases. Best,

Fred Niederman, editor in Chief CAIS
