Segment 1: Education: Past - Present - Yet to Come
- Jessica Williams
Past - Vocabulary spelling quizzes; Overhead projector; cursive writing from my Catholic school days; “renting” the computer lab or the TV cart before a vacation - Present - Google Meet (lemme intro this assignment, leave the Meet. Stay if you have questions, but return to the Meet with 7 minutes left in class); blue light glasses; Peardeck + Jamboard;
- Future - I would love to see students choosing a path of education that works best for them (like full remote, hybrid, etc.) and teachers cutting down on “busy work” (I’ve worked with a lot of departments + coaches this summer + fall on what needed to stick vs. what they enjoyed teaching
