Schools Post-Pandemic: Why We’ll Be Better Off On The Other Side – Tim Shirk
If and when students come back to school campuses after the COVID-19 pandemic, what will classrooms look like? What are some of the key lessons and trends we can take from our current school closure situation in order to fundamentally improve student learning when schools re-open?
Tim Shirk, an experienced U.S. and international school administrator, takes a bullish view on schools post-pandemic, arguing that schools and education in general will be better off on the other side as a result of new innovations, trends, and resources acquired and developed during extended school closures. The video above is a recording of his presentation with SchoolRubric on April 25, 2020.
