A version of this post was originally published in Education Today , on August 31, 2021. The global pandemic has required many teachers, students, and parents to adjust to many changes in the education system — and do so quickly. Pre-pandemic, the rollout of a digital learning program would take months; last year, schools had weeks (if not days) to implement remote learning models to ensure students continued their education despite all social distancing rules.

With the digital shift in K–12 education came a number of new applications. These apps, installed on student and educator devices, enable learning styles that became prevalent in the wake of the pandemic. For many users, the applications associated with blended, hybrid and remote learning aren’t considered a security threat, but for IT professionals, each application comes with new risk.

As many of you know, I have two wonderful children–one a LT CDR in the Navy and one a SSG (Staff Sergeant) in the Army. One day, they will both be veterans. I also have a long family history of relatives who fought for America. So today, I salute them and all others who have put their lives and dreams aside to support America’s values and principles.

For data lovers, the release of fresh census data probably feels like an extra Christmas every 10 years. But for K-12 students, chances are it’s not quite the cause for celebration. So how do you make that data accessible, relevant and maybe even fun? If you’re the U.S. Census Bureau, you call in other students—like a team of aspiring data scientists from American University.

Last year, the pandemic put pressure on a system that was already undeniably stressful for all involved: college admissions. Students and families faced limitations around visiting campuses, colleges and universities grappled with the frustrating realities of remote learning and we all fretted about finances. There aren’t a lot of decisions in life with such high financial stakes that require so many steps to get to the bottom line.

New York City, New York. Cleveland, Ohio. Williamston, South Carolina. In the height of the pandemic, nearly every community looked similar. Schools were closed. Restaurants were closed. Families stayed home. As our world is emerging from the pandemic, there is a distinct division in our communities that was clearly articulated by the three librarians who participated in a recent panel for publishers who create content for schools and public libraries.

When secondary educators plunged into emergency online teaching in March 2020, we faced a slew of challenges. Among those challenges was the lack of student engagement after the novelty of logging in from home in pajamas wore off. What started as a two week attempt at keeping things as normal as possible “just until after Spring Break,” became more than a year of uncertainty combined with lack of knowledge and resources to maintain high levels of engagement and content delivery.

The instructor’s PPT slides are brilliant. You’ve splurged on the expensive interactive courseware. Student engagement is stellar. So… why are half of your students still forgetting everything they learned in just a matter of weeks? It's likely a matter of cognitive science! With so much material to "teach" these days, we often forget to incorporate key proven principles into our curricula — namely active recall, metacognition, spaced repetition, and interleaving practice.

Right around winter break, everyone's thoughts start to turn to the upcoming time off and family celebrations. In school, little kids are tracing their hands to make turkeys, while older students might be taking final exams. No matter what's on the schedule, it's a great opportunity to make a little space for some social and emotional learning that leans into the spirit of the season rather than skating across the surface.

What Is Executive Functioning? When you hear the word “executive,” you probably think of a person in a suit at a meeting saying “proactive,” “synergize,” and “leverage core competencies” while waving at a chart. However, you might be surprised to learn that “executive” also applies to a six‑year‑old with untied shoes and a messy backpack.
