The Bedford County Public Schools Virtual Help Center was designed to provide comprehensive assistance to our community. This interactive forum includes resources, videos, and one-on-one support. Parent University was designed as an extension of the Virtual Help Center to help parents and students navigate the new learning environment. Videos are routinely released on the school YouTube channel to inform our community of best practices related to virtual or blended learning and provide technical tips. These videos provide strategies for success including study habits and routines, as well as giving parents a glimpse into learning from the perspective of students and teachers. Student agency is enhanced, as students acquire strategies to monitor content and skill acquisition. Teachers continue to prioritize instruction since technical assistance is provided by this resource. We received frequent visits to the Virtual Help Center, numerous views on the YouTube channel, and positive feedback from our community.
