There's a new kid in class.

And his name is “Distance Learning.”

And we’re all not so sure how we feel about him.  He’s been a little disruptive.  He came to us with almost no notice or warning, and well, he doesn’t seem to be moving on any time soon.

In fact, it looks as though many of us will be working with “Distance Learning” for the remainder of the school.

You know what I’m talking about.

Teachers all over the world are now in a new state of teaching.  Something most of us have never done before.  Suddenly words like “Zoom” have become part of our every day vocabulary as we try to carry on our instruction virtually.

I know that in my conversations with teachers, they are trying new modes of teaching.  Some teachers who have never used platforms like Google Classroom are now becoming Google pros overnight.

Not surprisingly, teachers are doing amazing.  We were built for this.  We know how to go with the flow, make quick changes, modify and keep going.

But, we’d be lying if we said it hasn’t been a challenge. Exhausting, really.

We don’t know when this will all end, but in this week’s BONUS episode, I’m hoping to give some helpful tips for making distance learning simple and straight forward.  For complete show notes AND to see all of the helpful video tutorials, head to classroomnook.com/podcast/distancelearning
