Mandarin Chinese teacher Wileen Hsing and host Evelyn Lauer discuss what participation means digitally, why some meetings should be held on zoom forever, and how fanny packs -- both literally and metaphorically -- are the pandemic trend.

Hsing has been a public high school teacher for more than 20 years. Initially, she taught ELL and English, but for the last twelve years, she's been teaching Mandarin Chinese in the World Language department. Through these two decades, Hsing has been Chinese Club sponsor, a union rep, a cooperating teacher, a mentor teacher, Steward for Evaluations and PD, and teacher rep for her district’s Peer Assistance and Review panel. She has also hosted two exchange programs to China and has written proposals for her district's Asian American Studies and Asian American Literature courses. When not teaching, she is a handwriting artist for a card company called Punkpost, where she is the Midwest regional leader. You can connect with Hsing on Twitter and Instagram at @madebytofu.

A new podcast for educators teaching during a global pandemic hosted by Evelyn Lauer, a high school English teacher with 20 years experience. Lauer will converse with teachers in different situations from different states with different rules in place to see how education has been flipped on its head for better or worse. What can we learn from this moment in time? What can we say we miss? What needs to change? And what do we now know to never take for granted?
