Popis: In 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic radically changed our way of life. From my March editorial inviting the community to ‘explore all imaginable aspects of this large social experiment that the Covid-19 pandemic has lain down in front of us’ (Jandrić 2020: 237), to the September issue with almost 60 articles on various aspects of the pandemic, Footnote1 the Postdigital Science and Education community has joined global research efforts to make sense of the pandemic. In April, the journal was approached by the World Health Organization to share preprints, and selected articles have since been indexed in the US National Library of Medicine’s Nature Public Health Emergency Collection.Footnote2 Several articles have been acknowledged by UNESCO for their contribution to advancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).Footnote3 A few articles, such as ‘Online University Teaching During and After the Covid-19 Crisis: Refocusing Teacher Presence and Learning Activity’ (Rapanta et al. 2020), and ‘Post-Covid-19 Education and Education Technology "Solutionism": a Seller’s Market’ (Teräs et al. 2020), have attracted tens of thousands of readers, many quotations, and have been translated into diverse languages from Turkish to Chinese. At the beginning of 2021, we can say that the Postdigital Science and Education community has made itself reasonably useful in the struggle against the pandemic. Today, the million (insert your favourite currency) question is: How can we make our work even more useful in the future?
