168: Pandemic Pods

I discuss pandemic pods and how they can support you during this current Coronavirus outbreak. Pandemic pods can take a number of forms, including: Parents swapping care for each other’s children, most likely rotating the children between houses, with less of a specific focus on learning (perhaps for younger children) Hiring an online tutor to coach a group of students primarily online Hiring a caregiver to work with the children in-person to make sure they stay on track with school-provided curriculum Either swapping care or hire a caregiver to focus on aspects of learning that aren’t traditionally covered in school (e.g. interest-led learning, explicitly anti-racist, anti-patriarchal learning, etc.) Jen Lumanlan, a previous guest from episode 68 has put together resources to help you navigate this new world of learning.
