UVM teacher education programs and Vermont school districts formed mutually beneficial partnerships to support virtual learning outcomes for students learning from home during the pandemic. Pictured from left to right are UVM faculty Kelly Becker, Marcus Fuller, Maureeen Neumann, Simon Jorgenson, and Barbara Burrington, who spearheaded the collaboration allowing education majors to support virtual learners and their families.
This fall presented educators, schools, and families with many challenges, one being that many students in the state are learning from home virtually three days a week. When confronted with this challenge and how Vermont educators could support students at home while simultaneously being responsible for in-person instruction, the idea of a partnership with UVM’s teacher education programs became a creative solution.
