COLUMBUS, OHIO, OCTOBER 5, 2020 – It’s officially back to school season, and this school year may be different. With the continuing threat and concern for COVID-19 outbreaks in the school system, many districts are returning to remote or hybrid classroom environments. WOSU Classroom understands the challenges facing teachers in Central Ohio and is committed to helping them succeed through Teacher Campus, a subscription professional development service for teachers.
Joining together with SOITA and CET PBS, this series of professional learning opportunities for pre-Kindergarten to grade 12 educators features virtual self-paced courses created and instructed by experts from Ed Tech Agencies and public media stations. A wide variety of subscription plans are available and designed to fit each teacher or district’s unique educational goals.
Students today are facing new challenges with classes going hybrid or entirely remote, and educators are seeking ways to create environments that overcome these potential learning barriers. “We are very excited to bring this new resource to teachers across Central Ohio,” said Amy Palermo, Chief Content Director, WOSU Classroom. “With courses on Best Practices for Videoconferencing with Students, Designing Lessons for Remote Learning, and Interactive Web Tools, Teacher Campus enables educators to adapt their classrooms, whether physical or virtual, to better meet their students’ needs.”
Teacher Campus offers a variety of subscription options for teachers and administrators, from free access to special discounts for the start of the school year.
