We begin 2021 heartened by the resiliency of educators and students from around the country pushing through the disruptions of COVID-19. Even in the face of current challenges, many schools and districts are using this moment to design new approaches that will shape learning far into the future.
As 2021 kicks off and we set our resolutions for the new year, we pledge our organizationsâ continued efforts to respond to educatorsâ professional learning needs.
For example, Gwinnett County Public Schools designed an online learning system (eCLASS) to support emergency online learning needs. As students move back in the classroom, instead of shuttering their online program, theyâve repurposed it to provide additional approaches for engaging with content and building competencies in the ISTE Standards for Students.
