Special Virtual Keynote by Amelia Archer

Teaching students while social distancing

In this period of social distancing, Amelia can support school leaders to create a virtual environment in which teachers can still meet with their students daily on whatever devices they have at home.  In this way student well-being can be monitored, safe social interaction between students can be facilitated and meaningful teaching and learning prioritised.

Retaining a semblance of normality and structured learning while students are at home is immensely important.  Routine interaction with their class teacher and peers will help to reduce anxiety whilst meaningful engagement in learning will reduce boredom and frustration.

Key takeaways:

  • Amelia can support schools in setting up Google Classroom and using Google Apps for Education. She is a Google Certified Level 2 Trainer.
  • She will share resources and strategies to ensure teachers are equipped to co-ordinate meaningful learning experiences across the curriculum – although facilitated via digital devices, she is committed to ensuring learning is diverse, active and not dictated by screens.

I have heard Amelia present before and I thought this might be repetitive but I was so wrong. Everything was completely fresh and full of vibrancy. She has equipped me yet again to return to the classroom a stronger, better and fully ignited, teacher.

Just wow! She was so inspiring and I feel genuinely excited about taking the tools she showed us back to school with me.
