Clip 022.2 -- Ryan Tibbens -- Nothing to Lose

In highlight clip 022.2, which actually comprises nearly half of ClassCast Podcast Ep.022, host Ryan Tibbens discusses Coronavirus school closings as an opportunity for progress and innovation in education.  He addresses some of the risks and threats inherent in the situation as well. From looking at what we might gain to what we could lose, from bureaucratic decision-making to leaders in the classroom, Tibbens points out how long term goals for public education might actually be supported by the current closings and pandemic. 

If you appreciate any of the ideas in this clip, you might also enjoy the full episode or another highlight clip about 'being wrong' and announcing school closures (lower on this page).  At the end of the full episode, there are also book recommendations to help listeners regain some balance and confidence in their lives as well as a reference to how school stakeholders are handling the closures. Stay home; stay safe!

FULL Episode 022 -- Ryan Tibbens -- Coming to Terms with (& Capitalizing on) Coronavirus School Closings

Episode 022 of the ClassCast Podcast features host Ryan Tibbens discussing how teachers and school stakeholders are coming to terms with Coronavirus school closings (and how they might capitalize on this opportunity).  This episode begins with a personal reflection on the rise of the illness and predicting school responses; later discussions include being wrong, announcing school closures, innovation, the wisdom of caution, leadership, and more. Most school divisions now have some form of distance learning plan in place, and as new instruction gains momentum, it is important for teachers to consider the long-term implications of our current situation and decisions. At the end, there are also book recommendations to help listeners regain some balance and confidence in their lives as well as a reference to how school stakeholders are handling the closures. Stay home; stay safe!
