Information Funnel

-


To Members of the Hive,

In a time of uncertainty and global chaos, we as educators need to provide our students with a structural and social backbone.  Educators have been asked to deliver high-quality instruction in a digital format virtually overnight.  We all need help in ensuring that we are meeting our student’s needs in this new format.  We must show our kids that education, and more importantly educators, are the glue that holds together the very social structure that binds us all together. 

As every education system around the globe has been disrupted by the coronavirus we must work together to support one another.  We must crowdsource materials.  We must think across grade levels, standards, and content.  We must focus on learning and the art of thinking.  We must be mindful of the social and emotional needs of our students.  Let us provide our students with a remarkable learning experience in the times ahead. We will find a path forward together.    

At Princeton Hive, we seek to empower educators through social connection, building digital content, and providing professional development opportunities.  We are positioned to support members of our education community by blending innovative digital experiences with meeting real-time needs.  We have created a global informational funnel to enhance skills and grow digital instructional confidence.

Stay and healthy. Princeton Hive stands ready to support our education colleagues.

However, this is so counterproductive! Our brains can only absorb so much at once so you end up wasting a lot of time and forgetting information almost as soon as you review it! Instead of falling into this cycle, space out your studying and set times/days you will
