As you know, the pandemic has forced many teachers and students to move to online learning. And with the status of physically going back to school in the fall still up in the air in most places around the country, this could be the new normal for quite some time.
At STEPS (Student Training & Education in Public Service), we’re big believers in the benefits of online learning, but we know it brings many unique challenges, especially for teachers who have been thrown into it for the first time.
To help teachers who are brand new to online learning get more comfortable and confident, we created a comprehensive beginner’s guide, which you can view at the link below. It’s also a great guide for current online teachers looking to improve their skills.
