(7/31/20) "As American school officials debate when it will be safe for schoolchildren to return to classrooms, looking abroad may offer insights,” reads the opening line of Dr. Bob Spires’s article for The Conversation entitled “How other countries reopened schools during the pandemic and what the US can learn from them.” An assistant professor of education at the University of Richmond, Dr. Spires also defines himself as a scholar of comparative international education. Join us for a discussion of how looking at what other countries did right (and wrong) can help officials and administrators learn how to reopen schools safely here at home in this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI.
