Return to Learning Anytime, Anywhere

FREE VIRTUAL ROUNDTABLE FOR EDUCATORS

On-Demand Roundtable Discussion

The pandemic forced educators and students to adapt in multiple ways: to new settings, to technology, and to isolation from fellow educators and classmates. For many students, even learning how to type on a computer keyboard was brand new. Teachers and students have done a remarkable job adjusting to the circumstances.

So, what lessons should educators take away and absorb into their practice, wherever and however learning takes place?

Join our panel of experts as they provide inspiration and advice for implementing high quality curricula with their own “teacher’s thumbprint,” whatever the school year brings. 


Roundtable panelists:

  • shared best practices for engaging students in the virtual environment, such as relating curriculum content to current events.

  • discussed how to blend asynchronous and synchronous lessons to build the student joy and confidence necessary for learning.
  • explained how substantive curriculum adapts well to virtual or hybrid instruction with complete texts and proven learning routines, freeing teachers to focus on individual student needs rather than searching for instructional materials to modify.
