Google released the Doodle on May 4, working in collaboration with 54 State Teachers of the Year who visited the Google campus in February. Google said search interest in “how to thank a teacher” tripled last month as students and parents looked for ways to show their appreciation for their educators, who are already unsung heroes y moving their classrooms and curriculum online during COVID-19 to highlight the superhuman effort instructors make to educate their students.
Google Doodle illustration artist Kevin Laughlin said he was motivated by meeting the teachers as he worked on the Doodle. “I know from firsthand experience how much of a positive impact a teacher can have on a young person’s life,” he said. “I can’t express how happy I am to have had the opportunity to be a part of the Teacher Appreciation project this year.”
