UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — Through research and testing, a Penn State task group has made recommendations on the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) for instructors for classroom and laboratory settings. The evolving recommendations are now available on the Keep Teaching website for Penn State instructors teaching in-person and mixed-mode classes this fall.
The University has purchased an additional 1.5 million procedure masks for instructor use for in-person teaching. In addition, to meet specific teaching and learning needs across the university, more than 14,000 face shields and 8,000 clear masks will be available.
More information and FAQs about the recommendations are available here.
