Press Herald speaks with Morrison about remote learning and teaching
The interviewed Mia Morrison, an adviser and lecturer in instructional technology with the 91±¬ÁĎ College of Education and Human Development, for an article about the “new normal” of learning at home for Maine’s PreK-12 students and teachers. The piece profiled a second-grade class at Portland’s Lyseth Elementary School, showing how the teacher and students are adapting to remote learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. “In a classroom you know the instruction and support each child is getting,” Morrison told the Press Herald. “It’s a guessing game online. I would say that’s a big difficulty. You don’t have any idea what’s happening around the students and how much support they’re getting. They may be getting none.”
