COVID-19 is likely the greatest challenge that the world has faced since the second world war.
But as we sit isolated in our homes, we find ourselves with a resource which there never seemed to be enough of… Time.
Time to reflect… time to start a new hobby… time to transform ourselves and grow.When looking at this opportunity through an educational lens, if schools and districts can harness the potential of this resource, we have the opportunity to emerge from these challenging times as our best selves, and provide the best education the world has ever seen.
Educators have been trying to transform "how" and "what" we teach for the past few years, and the largest roadblock has always been time; the one resource that we now find ourselves with an abundance of.
This is truly an unprecedented opportunity for us to move the needle within education.
During this time, it can be difficult to look forward and take a proactive approach to life or work, but you’re not alone. Millions of other people are in the exact same scenario, and if we work together, we can improve ourselves and the world around us.
A successful transformation is possible, but it requires three ingredients:
A desire to improve or change
An understanding of the goal/focus
A pathway with achievable steps, to reach that goal
To assist, we are offering a Free 1-Hour Webinar that can provide educators with a roadmap. It will:
Inspire and motivate
Build a strong understanding of how technology will transform the workforce, and specific steps that we need to take to prepare our students for a rapidly changing world
Demystify common misconceptions about the future and help educators avoid costly missteps
Provide proven strategies to significantly increase STEM engagement across your entire school community (students, teachers and parents)
Provide free resources that educators can use to enhance lesson plans / skills across all subject areas
Provide free resources that educators can pass along to students to help them continue to learn at home
Over the past 5 years, we’ve helped more than 20,000 educators understand these changes, with dramatic results.
High Schools who have adopted our strategies have seen enrollment in courses like Programming and Robotics increase from 5% of the student population to 40% in just one year (for boys AND girls). Middle schools have seen up to 90% of students want to learn Coding and Robotics.
The information is that profound.
Our strategies are well tested and have proven effective across all academic abilities and demographics - from inner city Los Angeles to the prairies of Canada.
