As social distancing practices make face-to-face lessons impossible, education specialist Andrew Rumsey helps you make the digital step to teaching online.
None of us are certain how long this pandemic will last, but it is changing the teaching landscape around us very quickly, and teachers who transfer their skills and expertise to the distance, online space, are the ones who are seeing the most success in this challenging time.
This is something that we’re very passionate about at Kawai, so we’re working with a number of organisations to help teachers make the transition. The resources listed below feature some of Australia’s premier pedagogues and online experts, and should help you with a few ideas to get you started.
