COVID-19 and the Classroom: How Schools Navigated the Great Disruption provides a very comprehensive look at how COVID 19 impacted schools and schooling. The authors use first person accounts from teachers, school leaders, and others concerning how COVID 19 affected all aspects of education. Pointing out that most teachers had never taught virtually, and most students had never learned virtually, the authors summarize some of the concerns and frustrations of teachers, parents, and school leaders in having to pivot to a new way of teaching. The most important aspect of the book is that it provides many lessons learned that will help all educators and parents deal with future pandemics.
