Remote learning
This time for teachers has been the busiest we have ever experienced. For some it means learning an entirely new system in order to support our students. For others, it can mean you are stepping up to assist staff but need to remember to look after yourself. Self care at the moment is prevalent. Check out this Smore newsletter on Focus on Teacher Wellness.
One question I'm always asked is: How do you keep 'up to date' with the latest tips and tricks?
Social Media. It is full of great resources and tips and tricks but even that can become overwhelming so I tend to narrow down my focus to key people or hashtags.
Here are two platforms that I tend to stick to:
1. Facebook - 'Canberra Teachers' or 'Teachers Using Google Classroom'.
2. Twitter - #aussieED, @TED_ED, @naomi_toland, @AdamHillEDU, @SethiDeClerq, @DrAustralasianEDU, @measterman
Remember to take care of yourselves during this time.
