ShiftED #6 – A Conversation with Russell Dennis (WQSB)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
LEARN caught up with Russell Dennis of the Western Quebec School Board to discuss how a small school in northern Quebec has fared during the pandemic. Russell teaches cycle 3 elementary out of Dr. Wilbert Keon school in Chapeau, Quebec. It is unique in that the school houses both elementary/secondary students.
We discussed the challenges of online teaching, how to engage students virtually and what the future holds for education come August 31st, 2020. Really great chat!
