As schools consider how they deliver teaching while students are at home, this is a great opportunity for teachers to re-think their classroom approach, instead of replicating the physical classroom online. The real challenge is not which platform to use, but how to effectively use combinations of digital tools to set up an online learning culture.

This webinar is useful for schools that are already running remote teaching, or preparing to implement remote teaching. 

We are offering free access to Mathspace during the forced closures due to COVID-19. Attend this session for more information.

NOTE: This webinar is being run across the US and Australia. It is on at 5pm EST on March 19 in the US and 8am AEDT on March 20 in Australia.

As schools shift to online learning, it’s important to understand that fostering relationships with students is the key to student engagement. However, given the status of where the world is right now, this connection has to be more than just academics. As an independent study school who has been engaged in virtual learning for over 10 years, we’ve invested significant time connecting with students and understanding the power of that connection. One hazard inherent to online learning is isolation. Using virtual platforms, we will show you how to connect students to a learning community where they can collaborate with other teachers and students to build relationships during this time of change.

Caring for the whole student and diminishing isolation in online learning

What is most important when building a virtual learning environment? How do students know what to do each day? What systems are essential to success? Hear from Lynda and Christina, two educators with a decade of distance learning experience, as they openly share their journey - and how to avoid the initial challenges mistakes they made in transitioning to online learning. Take the essential lessons they distilled - onboarding, norms/expectations, and connecting with students - to help you get started. 

This webinar will feature high school students from Visions In Education’s University Prep Academy sharing their experience teaching and learning in a virtual environment. The students will share their own stories in starting with virtual learning, identify important habits they have developed, and the challenges they face learning on their own. This is an essential webinar to see virtual learning through your students’ eyes as you move to distance learning.

New Learning Resources for VCE Teachers

Cherie Connors

Deputy Principal, Fadden Primary School

The transition between primary school and high school often brings about a number of challenges for both teachers and students. This largely arises because schools operate in isolation, rather than working collaboratively. In this session, we will discuss common misconceptions about the primary/high school experience. We will then show how continuous data across a child’s learning journey can remove these boundaries, and foster strong reciprocal partnership that return the focus to the individual student.

Mathspace Features to help you save time

Debates about the efficacy and effects of high stakes assessments continue, and while teachers understand the importance of personalised learning programs, the practicalities of implementing them in the classroom has always been a challenge.

The Tutor Learning Initiative has given Victorian schools a unique opportunity to provide personalised learning to students whose learning has been disrupted as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. It will also be a great opportunity to assess the impact of small group tuition, which research has shown to be highly effective on student learning outcomes.

Join Mohamad Jebara, CEO and founder of Mathspace, as well as Daniel O’Kane and Craig Blake, as they present best practices for implementing small group tuition and introduce Waypoints; a new continuous standardised assessment platform. All teachers who attend this session will be eligible for a year’s free Waypoints access for all students participating in your school’s new tutoring program.

Debates about the efficacy and effects of high stakes assessments continue, and while teachers understand the importance of personalised learning programs, the practicalities of implementing them in the classroom has always been a challenge. The COVID Learning Support initiative has given NSW schools a unique opportunity to provide personalised learning to students whose access to education has suffered as a result of the pandemic. It will also be a great opportunity to assess the impact of small group tuition which research has shown to be highly effective on student learning outcomes.

Technology has proven to be a tremendous asset in the pandemic pivot over the past three years to support learning, but what do districts plan to do now that we are bringing students back in-person?
Our panelists will share their respective viewpoints on determining how much is "too much technology" when using it to support instruction and overall student needs.
What priorities should be set when selecting technology for schools? Attending to our students' academic and SEL needs shouldn’t be handed off to technology, but it can certainly be supported by technology in meaningful and beneficial ways.
