Since March, our schools and classrooms have been faced with the challenges of fostering, nurturing, and sustaining student engagement and learning from a distance. Distance learning is not new, the vast majority of us have not had to teach learners using an online platform. While challenging for many different reasons, one consistent aspect of pandemic teaching is the science of learning. Whether in the living room or laboratory, the couch or the classroom, the principles of how our students learn remain consistent AND constant. This highly engaging webinar looks the fundamental principles of how our students learn and translates them into highly practical strategies for distance learning. Teaching and learning at a distance will not dampen our impact on student engagement and learning. This webinar ensures that we continue to maximize student engagement and learning in ANY CONTEXT!
This seminar is applicable for K-12 teachers, administrators, instructional coaches, counselors, and other educators that support classroom instruction.
