Four hours of content also will be streamed overnight and viewers can watch it live or record it.

Through May, students will record the programs, which will be available for spring, summer and fall semesters 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Specific lessons will be created for pre-kindergarten through 12<sup>th<\/sup> grade and focus on literacy and math skills. Most segments will run six to 12 minutes, but some may be as long as 24 minutes.<\/p>\n<p>Working with the school system and the TV station is a win-win for UTC students, said Kendra Duncan, the liaison between UTC and its other partners in the program.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s the beauty of it all, that our UTC students are moving outside their UTC classrooms and courses and working directly with community members to address a real problem\u2014the K-12 learning loss due to COVID-19 and public school closures,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>At UTC, Duncan is coordinator for the edTPA\u2014Educative Teacher Performance Assessment\u2014the certification exam taken by student teachers in their final semesters of college. They must pass the exam to teach in the state of Tennessee.<\/p>\n<p>Students enrolled in the Tyner Institute for Teaching and Learning\u2014a program sponsored by the UTC School of Education and Hamilton County Schools\u2014 also are recording content for the channel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong>UTC professors are working with School of Education students to research and plan their segments. From there, virtual meetings will be held with officials in the WTCI production department to discuss the best ways to present the lessons on TV.<\/p>\n<p>The segments are meant to supplement regular lessons, not replace them. Once enough lessons are recorded, the project will provide up to 12 hours of local, state and national lessons and instruction a day to reinforce and\/or enrich students classroom learning.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis was created to be a collaborative space that not only amplifies the great educators and talented students in our community, but ensures that all students in our four-state viewing area, regardless of their access to digital technology, have access to free, standards-aligned education programming and opportunities,\u201d said Alea Tveit, education outreach coordinator at WTCI.<\/p>\n<p>During the pandemic, schools in Hamilton County have been fully closed at one time, then transitioned to a hybrid schedule, with in-person teaching some days and online teaching for others. Educators worry that students will fall behind. Duncan describes the learning gap as \u201csignificant.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven though HCS schools have re-opened, some parents have opted for their children to continue to access learning remotely due to medical conditions that might put family members at higher risk or aging family members in the home,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cUTC recordings can provide re-teaching opportunities to reinforce key concepts that were covered by the HCS teacher. Or they will also provide enrichment opportunities for K-12 students to learn more about the content covered by their teacher.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Physical Education majors and students in the Master of Public Health program will record &#8220;brain break\u201d segments that &#8220;support our community to engage in healthy behaviors as family, friends and neighbors,&#8221; said Shewanee Howard-Baptiste, interim\u00a0 director for the Master in Public Health.<\/p>\n<p>The breaks will include yoga, breakfast tips, posture, bike safety, dental care and many other activities. &#8220;These breaks will offer ways for children to become physically and academically engaged during our six-minute spots,&#8221; according to Jamie Harvey, K-12 program coordinator in Health and Physical Education.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new partnership between PBS member station WTCI, Hamilton County Schools and the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga School of Education is intended to reduce learning gap effects of COVID-19 on students in the school system.<\/p>\n<p class=\"more-link-wrap\"><span><a class=\"more-link button text\" href=\"https:\/\/blogarchive.utc.edu\/news\/2021\/03\/program-intended-to-help-students-catch-up-in-their-studies\/\"><span>Continue Reading <\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1105,"featured_media":14667,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_slider":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_featurette":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[56,3,7712,64,122494,8325,661],"tags":[83229,8321],"class_list":{"0":"post-35847","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-college-of-health-education-and-professional-studies","8":"category-community","9":"category-faculty-and-staff","10":"category-news","11":"category-physical-education","12":"category-service","13":"category-students","14":"tag-hamilton-county-school-system","15":"tag-wtci","16":"entry"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
