Join me at the free Emergency Home Learning Summit as speakers (including me) answer the question: “What do you know about learning that could dramatically help or change the lives of students (as well as parents, teachers, librarians, and others) at this moment?”
Whether by circumstance or choice, learning at home is now the reality for more students than ever. The event is for educators and parents interested in helping students to learn. This is possibly what may be one of the most important conversations about learning in the history of the world. Understanding when, where, and how learning takes place has never been more important.
