These past few months have been an adjustment for me and my teenager. Online learning is new for many high school students and also teachers. Your high school teachers are generally taught how to manage classrooms and instruct in-person, not how to create robust, engaging courses for online platforms. That’s why online learning experiences are currently challenging – for each of us.
But what I know as an educator and previous assistant dean at Georgetown University is that summer matters. As the school year winds down, what are you planning for the summer? Yes, trips to the beach and long days riding bikes in the sun matter! But so do the learning experiences. That’s why I’m excited to be guiding the development of Summer Discovery’s online program for summer 2020.
