Children and Screens’ #AskTheExperts webinar “School’s Back, Now What? A Conversation About Teaching and Learning During COVID-19,” held on August 26th, 2020 at 12:00pm EDT, featured a conversation between distinguished, interdisciplinary researchers, educators, child development experts and parents on supporting families in adjusting to new plans, engaging with their children, and their children’s “new” classrooms both on and off screen. The discussion included reflections and lessons learned from the previous semester’s pivot to online learning, and strategies for how to bridge the distance gap between students and teachers and amongst peers. Parents and educators offered advice on how they can help their children cope and thrive both academically as well as socio-emotionally.
