WKAR and College of Education Partner to Create Family Video Segments

WKAR and MSU’s College of Education have partnered to create a series of short video segments to help families adapt to at-home learning. 

Featuring College of Education faculty, and produced via teleconference to adhere to current social distancing standards, each segment includes research-based tips and resources that will help Michigan families thrive during this uncertain time.

The first segments of the series will begin airing on WKAR-TV this week. They are also available online:
