At TeachLab we continue our efforts to support teachers during the coronavirus pandemic. In this episode, Justin Reich joins Laura Tavares from Facing History and Ourselves, a professional development organization empowering teachers & students to think critically about history & to understand the impact of their choices. We discussed building community, supporting students, and caring for each other in the transition to distance learning. 

During the webinar, Justin and Laura discuss:

  • Sustaining values and equitable practices in challenging circumstances
  • Research about the risks for struggling and vulnerable learners in a transition to online learning
  • Actively reaching out to support learners in low tech ways through phone, messaging, and email
  • Research on typical virtual school practices, including their emphasis on self-paced, asynchronous learning and how much they depend upon parental support
  • Supporting student motivation through partnership, choice, autonomy, and agency
  • Using school resources in a crisis not just to address immediate needs, but to plan for supporting students in catching back up in summer, fall, and beyond
