How Substitute Teaching is Thriving Through Technology
from Voices of eLearning
Teng explained that location and how severe coronavirus outbreaks were in specific areas greatly influenced how school districts reacted to the pandemic. “We just saw a lot of different reactions to the pandemic over time. Now, I would say we're reaching a bit more of an equilibrium where, yes, certain areas are open for in person learning in schools,” Teng said. He noted that schools in areas with large outbreaks, like the Bay Area, are still probably primarily engaging in distance learning or remote learning. He believes that everyone's attention is focused on how we can get schools open in person in a safe way for both students and teachers. “What we're seeing in talking to districts and heads of HR in districts, is really [thinking about] how they can think about how to take care of their teachers. I think we've all probably read the stories about how difficult this year is for teachers,” Teng said. He noted that all workers in the education field aren’t facing the same level of challenges, especially compared to teachers. “I think teachers, in particular, are having a pretty tough time,” Teng explained.
