If you participated in our Remind.com webinar last year you are probably already convinced about how valuable this tool is for strengthening home/school communication. There have been some great new updates to Remind and we are excited to haveJordan Pedraza and a panel of teachers and administrators return to share these updates. Joining her on the panel: Michael Buist, 5th Grade Teacher at Knox Gifted Academy in Chandler, AZ (@BuistBunch); Carla Jefferson, Instructional Technology Coordinator, Darlington, SC (@mrsjeff2u); Joe Oliphant, Co-Principal and Former 2nd Grade Teacher, Propel Braddock Hills High School, Braddock Hills, PA (@Joe_Oliphant). Remind helps school communities deepen relationships and engagement through instant and safe communication through text and mobile app messages. Better communication leads to stronger communities and improved outcomes. Teacher-parent engagement is critical to student success, and Remind helps connect these support networks with simple, accessible messaging. In this webinar, we'll share how educators use light-touch communication to extend student learning, increase parent involvement, and strengthen relationships in their classrooms and schools.
Jordan Pedraza currently leads Community at Remind and has worked in the ed tech space for almost 10 years with experiencing in higher education, k-12, policy research, and international settings. Before Remind, Jordan led Community with Google for Education and helped universities, k-12 schools, and ministries of education adopt various Google tools. Jordan is deeply passionate about helping communities explore and adopt technology for new learning models and creativity.
