Episode Synopsis

In light of COVID-19, the Inspired Educator podcast will focus on the realities of teaching and learning in this new context. For this episode, I wanted to share a journal article from Health Affairs, a peer-reviewed healthcare journal described by the Washington Post as the bible of health policy. The article is titled, Closing the schools – lessons from the 1918-19 US Influenza Pandemic published in 2009. I thought this article is quite helpful as it paints a picture of how different cities and their schools were wrestling with the different interventions necessary to help mitigate the influenza pandemic over 100 years ago.
