A Conversation With Students: How COVID-19 is Affecting their Educational Experience
April 14, 2020 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm EDT
April 14, 2-3pm ET
A national education conversation has gotten underway on the impact of COVID-19 on student learning and how schools and districts are responding to this crisis. In this conversation we’ll hear from the students themselves.
Whereas educators from across the nation are focusing their efforts on providing an alternative learning experience to students via distance and virtual learning, there are serious concerns regarding educational equity for all students; particularly for students from special populations (e.g., low-income, special needs, English Learners, students experiencing homelessness, etc.) during this crisis.
What are we doing?
To address these concerns, MAEC is going to the source to find out how COVID-19 is impacting students. MAEC’s own Dr. Daryl Williams, along with Mr. Sadiq Ali, Executive Director of the Maryland Mentor program, will facilitate a dialogue with students nationwide from California, New Jersey, Maine, and Maryland.
We want to create a forum in which students share their perspectives on how this pandemic is impacting their present and future educational experiences.
Who should attend?
Educators, Administrators, Community Members, and Families
When is this conversation?
Next Tuesday, April 14, 2020 from 2-3pm ET.
What if I have questions for the students?
Join us for this event! There will be an opportunity for a Q&A with the students.
Don’t miss hearing from the voices of students themselves.
