The Tennessee Department of Education and Trevecca University resource, Bridging the Distance: Family Remote Learning, is specially designed to help families navigate remote learning and better understand the common tools and programs used by educators.
This completely free resource features “Remote Learning 101” modules that will help families learn the same tools our educators use for remote instruction. These short, accessible videos from experts will help families understand common remote learning tools and equips them to speak the same “tech” language as the teacher, so they will be better able to support their child’s learning.
Families can access these resources at: https://remotefamilylearning.com/.Join PTA!
