Dr.Torrey Trust and her Mathematics, Science, and Learning Technology doctoral program advisee, Jeromie Whalen, published a new article in Educational Media International titled, "Emergency remote teaching with technology during the COVID-19 pandemic: Using the whole teacher lens to examine educator’s experiences and insights". This study examines survey data collected from 265 K-12 teachers during the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Findings revealed that educators relied on multiple areas of growth (i.e., affective, social, cognitive, and identity) to successfully navigate the shift to emergency remote teaching. This study "points to the need for pre-service and in-service teacher education to move beyond providing just cognitive growth opportunities to helping educators expand their adaptability, creativity, social growth, flexibility, critical approaches, and identities as teachers" (p. 13).
