I think it’s a great time for teachers to check in with their students. I think a lot of kids are stressed and overwhelmed. And yes... it’s always a good idea for admin to check in with teachers.

How to Choose Words That Motivate Students During Online Learning

Framing assignments in student-centric rather than teacher-centric ways can encourage engagement and persistence in learning.

If not now, when will we make broadband access available to all families. Thousands of students in Virginia are being shutout of learning opportunities and likely millions across the nation because of poor or no connectivity. @iste @CoSN this report is not ok. #COVID19

Teachers and administrators... In this time of crisis, content is less important than the mental well-being of our students. Use this time as an opportunity to connect with students on a more personal level. There is usually not enough time in the day. We now have the time.
