“We learned as teachers, as educators, there’s really not a solution we can’t figure out … We learned just how much schools and educational services are a huge part of what makes the community go. Everything from providing the education, providing a safe space for kids to be engaged during the day, to meal services, to internet access, to finding ways to support mental health. Schools really need to be a foundational element in the community.”
In this episode, Josh and Andrea spend some time reflecting on this year. If there is one word to describe this past school year, it’s “unprecedented.” Your PBL Playbook hosts spend this episode reflecting on all of the changes and curveballs facing educators, schools, students, parents, and administrators this year. Throughout the conversation, they talk about the implications of those changes, as well as the new tools, strategies, and overall lessons we can take and move forward into the next school year. While there were a lot of obstacles this year, educators around the country came together and found new ways to overcome and reach their students in creative and engaging ways. Those strategies will help to reshape education and improve our practice as we wrap up 20-21 and move into our next school year (and into Season 4 of the PBL Playbook).
Enjoy this episode, and stay tuned for more great content coming from the PBL Playbook next season!
