October Cordes Chair Event
Heather Walker
While the COVID pandemic brought many challenges to teaching, it also drove innovation. In this talk, October Cordes Chair Heather Walker will reflect on the changes that the pandemic brought to her teaching practices. She'll discuss which ones she plans to keep and which ones she'll throw away. The goal will be to consider how teaching through the pandemic benefitted her as a teacher.
