    Andrea Webb: “Reflective practice in a time of Covid-19: Scholarly teaching in teacher education” Attend the Keynote Speech in Zoom Room G1! ABSTRACT: As many of us know, delivering course materials in a virtual setting comes with plenty of challenges. For those working in teacher education, this situation has been particularly complex. Not only are education faculty shaping the next generation of teachers, we are preparing them to work in classroom settings, step into classrooms themselves; a challenge that is similar across many disciplines in higher education. Meeting the pedagogical needs of this year’s cohort of student teachers has required more than a simple shift to online lessons—it has involved a complete rethink of how to effectively deliver our program. Using teacher education as a lens, this talk will share my reflections on teaching and learning experiences during the global pandemic, the insights that I have gained, and the ways that I am reconsidering my teaching and learning practice.
