Support remote learning with collaborative tools, instructional content, or other resources.
Deliver distance learning in low socio-economic and rural areas that lack connectivity, wi-fi hot spots, and 1:1 devices.
Source digital content for special populations like ELL and Special Ed students.
Provide online professional development webinars and tutorials, especially about using digital content, teaching remotely, and adapting content for ELL, Special Ed, and SEL.
Source content on mental health, substance abuse, and SEL products.
Provide a safe and healthy setting for students with sanitizing, disinfecting, and cleaning products.
