EDUCATOR WORKSHOP

Teaching Post-Pandemic Learners

The Pandemic shifted learning to a virtual setting for years, significantly impacting the depth of skills that students entering post-secondary would have held previously. With strategies to increase learner engagement and resources to build responsive programming for students, this workshop will alleviate the exponentially developing learning gaps. Participants will take away practical changes that can support the shift away from traditional teaching and learning, while rooting core program goals at the centre of practice. Scenarios can aid in real-life application of newly learned communication skills and engagement techniques.

HEY, I'M JANELLE!

I look forward to learning with you and growing as educators. Teaching through the pandemic was rough and it definitely hasn't been easy to regroup and remediate since – I hope we can learn together to apply better practices that support you and your learners!
