Teaching during COVID-19

This topic is curated by members of the Learning Futures Network to help each other through the rapidly changing educational landscape that's evolving during the world's response to COVID-19.  Its here to help you identify some quality resources that have been looked over by other educators.  Please remember to comment and offer guidance where you can.  This is more about contribution and sharing than it is about simply taking.

You can enrol as many students from your school as you wish. All students will need to pair up with a classmate or someone they know at school or in their community, so they can work side-by-side. Each pair will then meet and join up with a pair of students from anywhere else in the world. Ideally all teams should have 4 students. Teams can have as many advisors and helpers as they wish, but only four students will be the officially recognised team.

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Project

The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals Project | Teaching during COVID-19 | Scoop.it
From www.unsdgproject.com - March 27, 2020 12:08 AM
The UN Sustainable Development Goals provide a powerful platform to deliver a fully integrated inquiry and problem-based learning program.  This website is designed to support / supplement not only a program of this nature but also the Global Goals Challenge and the UNESCO Global Education First Initiatives.
As well as an extensive collection of resources that relate to the UN Sustainable Development Goals there is also a Digital Passport Challenge which is designed to encourage students to explore the 17 Sustainable Development Goals  using a range of technology tools.
As students complete the Challenges they can be awarded digital badges that showcase their learning.
This is a long-term project that will not only teach students about key topics that impact every human being on the planet, but will also help them develop important Transversal Competencies like critical and creative thinking, persistence, and inquiry and problem solving.
