Over the past few months we have witnessed a huge transition to online learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But is it as easy as just transitioning what we use to do in-person to an online platform? In this episode of Nerdin’ About, we’re joined by Sultan Rana, a teacher of soon-to-be educators at York University’s Faculty of Education. We discuss how to integrate technology wisely into teaching and the need for accessible tech education. Sultan also shares his experience delivering equity, diversity, and inclusion training for teachers and why that training alone isn’t enough.
