Angela Watson's Truth for Teachers
EP192 Schools are closed. This is our chance to reimagine them.
22 Mar 2020
A sudden switch to teaching remotely is so difficult to manage. But what if it allows us to let go of all our previous assumptions about what we "have" to do with kids? If schools can simplify the curriculum, cancel standardized testing, and put kids' socio-emotional wellness first right now ... why can't we do that all the time? In this episode, I'm offering encouragement to help you let go of the pressure to do remote learning the "right" way. There is no right way because what we're trying right now has never been done before on such a large scale. If you've been feeling anxious about how to make everything work, listen in for some reassurance and clarity. This might just be the beginning of a profound and deeply-needed transformation of the expectations placed on teachers and students.
