Dear reader,
So much of what we’re going through during this frightening coronavirus era feels unprecedented, but there are actually some excellent examples from the recent past of how education has tackled unexpected disasters like fires, floods and hurricanes.
This week, The Hechinger Report examined lessons on how colleges and universities become lifelines for students and communities in the face of such emergencies. We also published an in-depth look at a personalized learning program that schools are finding has been helpful in the transition to remote learning. And, as part of our Guidance Gap series, we took you inside the world of a hard-working college counselor worried about her students. We love to hear from our readers, so stay healthy – and please consider becoming a member and supporting our work on #GivingTuesdayNow.
