Pedagogy, Politics, & Place: Video PD for a Polarized Age

With the 250th anniversary of the United States nearing, the need for accurate, engaging, and factual instruction has never been more urgent. Educators need professional development that is both flexible and trustworthy. Museums and nonprofits - longstanding partners in education - are responding to this moment by reimagining professional learning through video-based formats that preserve the power of place and story. This panel explores how these organizations are using video to support educators in navigating today’s polarized educational landscape with clarity, confidence and integrity.
