Peace, Patience, and Remote Learning: An Origami Lesson

Abstract

After a full year of remote education, most students have experienced some form of online or hybrid learning. Those who enrolled in Adjunct Lecturer Linda Diekman’s Summer 2021 iSchool course (Information Books and Resources for Youth) at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, were immersed in learning to locate, evaluate, and select factual print and nonprint materials for youth while being cognizant of the children’s intellectual, emotional, social, and physical needs. Developing thoughtful and intentional lessons to better connect with and support each and every youth is imperative in lesson planning, especially during a world pandemic.
